Questioning whether to add a 2nd bedroom in a rental unit

[Account Closed]

Hi BP,

I'm just starting on this REI journey. My husband has a property for his business (chiropractor). There is a 1000 sq ft space in the basement that we are making into a rental to get our feet wet. We go back and forth on whether it would be worth it to make it a 2bd instead of a 1bd. It would probably be an additional $5k for the 2nd bedroom (need egress window). I just don't know if a young family would rent under a business versus a young professional or young couple who only need 1 bedroom. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.
