Who would likely rent a 6 bedroom, 2 bathroom furnished house?

Dave Fairb
Posted

I have a big house that I'm thinking to rent out for December 1st. I live in the house at the moment and thinking to move to Mexico for a year. 

The house is in pretty good condition, though it's built 1950's, it's had lots of updates. 

It has 3 floors. 

Top 2 floors are one unit. That unit has 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms.  

Basement is a separate legal unit and has 3 bedrooms. 

Gas and electric are not on separate meters for the 2 units. 

Area is a good up and coming area. Professional people would live here. 

I'm just wondering who would be looking for a 6 bedroom unit?  What I want to avoid is something that happens here in expensive Vancouver BC, and that it where one person rents it and then gets their hommies in all renting a room each. 

There's some insulation between the upper floors and basement, but it can noisy if there's a ton of foot traffic upstairs. 

I guess the basement people would have to be aware of that before they decide to rent. 

Anyone any thoughts on this?

I would recommend that you devote some time to finding an above average property manager to handle things while you are in Mexico. All the best!
