Furnished Finder does make it tricky since you need separate profiles for each room, but platforms like Apartments.com or Airbnb might work better if you're aiming for full-house rentals or structured by-the-room arrangements.If you decide to rent to multiple individuals:Tenant Screening: Screen each tenant thoroughly to ensure they’re reliable and responsible.Clear Communication: Introduce potential tenants to one another Detailed Agreements: Use separate leases for each tenant and specify shared vs. private spaces, utilities, and maintenance responsibilities.House Rules: Create clear, written house rules to prevent misunderstandings.Inventory Tracking: Document everything in the home (furniture, appliances, etc.) to avoid disputes about damage or missing items.Also, market your property with its flexibility in mind—like proximity to hospitals for traveling nurses or universities for graduate students.

Like someone else mentioned, doing a short term rental in a secluded basement that is very private and walled off is one thing, but sharing the same refrigerator, kitchen thermostat, etc. with a complete stranger seems like it will introduce more problems than what the money is actually worth.

I can introduce you to a few people who can likely help at Red Stick REI in January if you'd like.

Typically romex and copper wiring was introduced and most systems have been grounded - this will save you on electrical costs. 

@Benoy Varghese When I take over a property I send a letter to the existing tenants introducing myself and telling them where to send rent and provide the necessary information regarding my policy for dealing with maintenance issues.

Hello, I just thought I'd introduce myself here as I recently joined this platform.
