The lower entry costs compared to other markets, plus lower taxes, make it great for consistent cash flow.

This will lower your monthly living expenses while your tenants help pay down the mortgage and the house appreciates.

The headache of playing peacemaker between 3-5 unrelated tenants doesn't sound worth the premium management fee; not to mention rent by room generally brings in lower quality tenants which require significant more management.With that said, higher rates are pushing investors toward rent by room simply because it's the only option for cash flow (at least in Denver) which is why I have so many folks reaching out.If you currently have rent by room investments or perhaps you're a PM currently offering rent by room, I'd love to hear your feedback and any advice you may have. 

You’re going to get a lower selling price for occupied properties just as you will get an even lower price for selling a portfolio of homes.
