Just musing ahead 10 years or so.With states now mandating the phase out of Gas/Deisel cars  How are MF owners going to attract and keep tenants that will now have EV's in the next 10 to 20 years ?

@Kasondra Milton- hi there ...thanks ...Raised in the fairport area ...live on west coast now ..last summer I had to return to Roch area to help with a family illness  situation ...I stayed in a AIRBNB that was close to Strong hospital for 3 weeks ...in my search for places - I must say I was surprised at the lack of options ( at least at that time ) ...that being said - I agree with your comment about the fact that Greater  Roch  likely  wont  attract a large amount of renters consitently  ( outskirts  like  finger lakes are a diff story ) - thanks and good luck

@Renee LeFevreTo rent out your basement, follow these steps: check local regulations, prepare the basement with separate entrance, screen potential tenants, draft a lease agreement, set the right rent price, consider tax implications, update homeowner's insurance, and build a positive tenant relationship to attract quality renters.Good Luck!

Prices still attractive, but town growing that way. 

Highlight features like the private entrance to attract budget-conscious travelers.
