But it is important to understand, b/c eventually I would imagine you'd rent it out, too.I would still want to know more about the property, like 1) are the utilities separated so that the renters pay their own, or are the utilities included in the rent (or billed back separately)?

The driveway may be a negative, but I cannot imagine that it would keep if buyer away if the rest of the house is nice.

Based on your numbers it's hard to imagine that it is.

Now, if they just grabbed their stuff and moved without so much as picking up a broom or sponge, then they would be charged for cleaning commensurate with what it cost me to get the place rent-ready again.I imagine if you place a standard cleaning fee into your lease and the tenant realizes they're paying for it regardless how the place looks like on move-out, then I guarantee they're not going to pick up that broom or sponge and just leave it as is.I rather give them the option.

By the way, you can imagine that the commission on an $11K sale is next to nothing, so I paid my realtor a bonus on top of her commission.
