If you've thought about turning that vacant bedroom or empty garage into a utility apartment to make some extra money, you may want to think again.
On average, here are the top ten most annoying things about renting-out utility apartments;
- Tenants expecting Electricity and Water to be included in the rental fee... and Also expected to be included (but not limited to), namely - Cable TV, Phone service, Internet service, Babysitting service , Animal-care service, Plant-care service, Social Services, Private Clean-up services, etc...
- Loud and obnoxious noise and domestic disputes at all hours.
- Tenant using your house freezer, phone, cable tv and internet wi-fi access as extended privileges.
- Tenants using property space as a personal storage facility.
- Tenants inviting family and friends to live-in for extended periods without due notice.
- Tenants with unfixed or abandon vehicles leaking fluids on the driveway.
- Tenant and their guest parking all over the well-manicured lawn.
- Tenants using electric stoves - hot plates, microwave ovens and barb Q grills to save on the cost of buying cooking gas.
- Tenants blowing A/C 24/7 (home or not).
- Tenants habitually late with paying their rent.. on-time or ever.
If you can duly manage the above annoyances, then you've got what it take to become a real estates mogul.
