Would your tenants pay for a studio with a kitchenette?
Hey everyone. Im looking at a property to purchase that I would ideally set up as an up/down duplex. The basement is finished and separate with its own bedroom, full bathroom and a living room/area. I would need to add a kitchen to the space, but in order for it to remain a somewhat useable living room space, it would need to be a smaller kitchenette. Mini fridge, smaller sink, counter top stove, maybe a microwave and some cabinets. Does anyone think this would deter enough people from a studio space to keep this from being a viable option?
Fall back idea would be to just keep everything the way it is and rent the downstairs as the 3rd room, and the whole house is shared amongst the tenants.
Any thoughts/tips are appreciated!
