Do other landlords include a furniture deposit aside from the standard rental deposit?

Are you providing furniture too or just the room?

If they refuse to give it, you can follow the abandonment law of your state.I'm willing to bet dollars to donuts that what they left behind was junk furniture and trash.

From my reading, it appeared they were collateralizing my chattels/non-realestate property, so my tools, furniture, etc.

Does anyone have any advice on the feasibility of not classifying the property as an investment property to depreciate or write off expenses such as furniture, dishes, insurance etc, & just collecting monthly rent on your property for a regularly classified home?

- More deals to be had in Winter - The economic shock to real estate post-covid, as little as it may be (5-10% even) is expected to work itself out by end of the year - Get your ducks in a row before then, narrow down on neighborhood, save down payment money, furniture money, any immediate repairs/customization money

Find a way. uber, share your room , make sure extra bucks. heck i refurbished furniture before.

We agreed to help out the estate by removing all remaining furniture and goods, we found a local agency that we could donate a left over stairlift to.After the purchase we updated all light fixtures, added carpet, painted everything and refreshed the kitchen and bathroom.

Sometimes a cat or dog is a chill well cared for and awesome addition to the house; other animals can pee everywhere, chew the door and window frames, bark all the time, go bananas and stuff their nose in the crotch of every visitor, or the owner simply will not spring for flea meds or vet visits, leading to problems all housemates can feel.Like many aspects of this, it's a balancing act, and something to be mindful of.While I'm thinking through it, other things to keep in mind include furniture, storage space, parking spaces, and visitors.

Seriously though, I know white cabinets, dark wood trim, white painted brick (a cardinal sin to paint brick anyway IMO so good riddance there), glass block bathrooms, Tuscan kitchens, brass hardware, reclaimed wood, Edison bulbs, furniture and fixtures made out of black pipe and distressed wood, interior sliding barn doors, pastels, too much granite, chevron patterns, whicker furniture, etc. have all been way overdone recently and are on their way out now, and brightly painted cabinets are in, but beyond that I’m not sure what the “next” design trends are currently.
