Advertising a single room for rent

Matt Smith
Posted

I'm doing a house hack in Port Richey FL. I need to get 2 rooms rented out in my 3 bedroom house. I'll be living in the master room. The rooms rented out will have a shared bathroom and common areas. I'm asking $800/m. Not getting as many inquiries in the 2 days its been active as I thought I would. First time doing this, and getting a bit anxious as the first payment is due June 1. Tips on where to advertise, and tips on having a successful house hack/room share. Thank you for the help

That must be super stressful! I am not sure where Port Richey is, but if you are close to any college or university or technical school, be sure to advertise on their Facebook housing page. Most sane people are a little cautious about sharing space with some stranger, but students on a budget are a little more trusting and a little more desperate. Also...are the bedrooms furnished? I know for students seeking housing for internships, it will need to be furnished. Okay, just my thoughts. Good luck to you!
