As far as marketing your rooms goes, put a sign in your front yard "room for rent" and post an add on craigslist.

I would start in your own back yard so you can become familiar with the community and develop your niche.

Unfortunately, my clients need a back yard.

Then a yard sign.

We found a local farmer that took a few of the junkers and scrap yards to take the rest.

I just put a simple and direct line "3/2 Single Family Residence with Large Yard in Historic Sailboat Bend" but 80% of other ads have:"OMG WONT LAST...""

Of course, you may be able to salvage certain things and just give them a clean & polish, but all of these repairs will add up faster than you may anticipate.Unless you're on site and managing/doing the work yourself, throw in other variables of:> are contractors overcharging me?

It's on market, but I don't think anybody has thought about making the property "commercial"...The back yard is huge and has plenty of potential to be a 12-15 car, parking lot...

The business sits at an intersection and I believe a conservative traffic count of vehicles passing each day is about 1,000.There is about a quarter acre of flat yard attached to the business that he has we could lease out to generate extra income to cover the extra expenses.

She doesn’t do any yard work, everything is falling apart.. basically a good house to flip ( as long as there isn’t too much repair costs.
