Rent by the room lease

Nicolas Sanhueza
Posted

Hi everyone!

I am buying my second property using the BRRRR method, it is a 4 bed 3 bath townhouse right next to one of the mayor universities here in Philly.

My plan is rent it by the bedroom since all the units in this area do that and it works great, the problem is that apparently Philadelphia doesn’t allow renting out single bedrooms. 
my question is how can I structure the lease agreement in order to make this happen without violating any laws, there has to be a way around it because it is extremely common to rent a room in this area. 

Thank you so much for your input!
