It’s been awhile since I’ve posted about my beloved first rental property. It’s officially on the market. Has been for a little more than a week. I went with a property management company to handle all the marketing and tenant issues. So far so good. I have the property listed with no pets, but I’ve still gotten inquiries about that. I’ve read you don’t make money off of having pets in a property. I’d rather skip it then. At least for now.

One couple wanted to rip out (at their expense) the built in desk and cabinets in the bonus room. Are you serious? I have to chuckle because the request was so surprising. Maybe if they had been tenants for a year or two with on-time payments, maybe I’d consider it. But you’re brand new? No way. If they don’t like the room that much, they don’t have to live there.

Hopefully I’ll have a tenant soon.
