Next step to get good renters

[Caitlin Daniel]

Just started escrow on a property and I want to get roommates immediately. I’m a first time home buyer and I’ll be house hacking plus creating camping spots. 

I’ll be 15 minutes from a college town, but living on acreage in the country. About 25 minutes from the downtown of the nearest big city. There are 2 rooms that share a bathroom that I’ll be renting out. I’m all new to this, so I would love any screening tips you have or contract lease agreement wording that is helpful. 

How do I attract the right kind of roommates that I want to live with? Thinking about advertising for someone that has a horse so it can be a combined room + horse boarding situation. The college has an equestrian team… 

I’ll be installing an RV hookup also, so any advice on those renters or agreements, websites to use, tips on the installation of a dump line into septic tank…

I’ve got plans for a couple camp spots with teepees also. Anyone used Hipcamp? I’ll be adding an outdoor shower and toilet for those. Would love all the experiences and lessons to learn from.

thank you!!!
