1 bed den and 1.5 bath or 2 bed 2 bath for rental ?

Posted

Hi Everyone, we have paid advance for a 1 bed and den with 1 and half bath condo which is $590k. Half bath is in the living room. Our plan is to live there for an year or two and rent it out. If we pay $80k more we can get a 2 bed and 2 bath but the caveat is second bedroom is like a bigger den which don’t have a window and the second bathroom is in the living room (not attached). Both the units have approx 300 sq ft terrace which a unique feature for a condo in NoMa, Washington DC. Which one is better for renting ? 
Out thinking is that If it’s two bedrooms we can rent it two room mates and if it’s 1 Ben den we can rent it to a couple or couple with a child. But we will end up paying  $800/month more for 2 bed. Any advice is appreciated.
