furnished rentals
how furnished should a rental hse be to maximize monthly rent?

rental rates in OC exceed $2400 per month ( 3 bd/ 2 ba/ ). I am turning my hse into a rental for the next 5 yrs to compensate for the value loss this year (-$100,000). This will be new territory and i need some help with the extent of furnishings necessary to rent as ‘fully furnished’ and add it to the monthly rental price.
Now that you have my undivided attention (thx 4 the reply) i can expand on why ‘fully furnished’ looked so appealing to me. We inherited the house and now have 3+ complete house furnishings awaiting the ‘yard sale of a lifetime’. Might just be a way to pair up… ‘rent till yours’ As long as it finds a home – no worries.. Surely there is a way the new rennant and owner can agree/ deposits, pics, fica>650, itemized, etc. Most important, How much extra rent $ ?? Thanks 4 yer #1 ‘Best Answer’ H

fully furnished will allow you to get more, true, but fully furnished means everything–plates, pans, beds/linens, brooms, towels, drapes, vacuum, maybe a lawn mower? I am a landlord and tried what you want to do–and i’ll never do it again. My tenants sold everything they could, then moved out in the dead of night. It is definitely not worth the aggravation, even for the extra bit of money–and if you don’t write down EVERYTHING furnished, the tenants can claim the items are theirs. Please reconsider your decision. Better to rent unfurnished, trust me! And if you want to investigate selling under a lease/option scenario, this is how i bought my first property and it’s a good deal for both buyers and sellers. A good realtor can explain how a lease/option works–but be prepared for most realtors to dismiss this method as a bad idea–the realtor has to wait for the sale to take place (at some point in the future) and they don’t want to wait for their commission. Finally, even though your property has lost value, if you are patient, it will return. If you can keep the property and rent it out (unfurnished) for most/all your mortgage, i’d advise keeping it–you still get the depreciation and the write offs as a result of your house now (or soon-to-be) becoming income property. (i trust you know you can write off much more on a rental property than you can on a primary residence).

Will condo prices come down in Downtown Orlando High rises?

With a $12 Billion dollars in condo development/construction in downtown Orlando (condos being are been build, some already finished); Will prices go down in the future due to the vast availability? Currently the prices are in the upper $300′s up to $500 a sq/ft in high rises (such as Sanctuary/Paramount/ 55W/Tradition Towers/Solaris/VUE) and many many more are in development …. Do you think prices are about to tumble? I might be interested when prices become more reasonable!

Doubtful, because places like Orlando are always going to have a strong market. They may stabalize a little , but eventually they will spike back up.

Are the beaches in Port St Joe dog friendly?

I know Cape San Blas has dog friendly beaches but are these two areas about the same? everytime I look at rentals for Port St. Joe I, always have Cape San Blas pop up. Are they in the same county or what? A friend said he went to port St. Joe years ago and the odor was terrible. Is it still the same? Any restaurants dog friendly?

PSJ and Cape San Blas are both in Gulf County – as long as your dog has a leash you are welcome to bring your pooch to the beach – take note of the doggie clean up bags stationed at each of the beach boardwalk entrances just in case you need to scoop during your beach romp :) The town of Port St Joe has no real “beach” – water access via the marina – most locals beach it of Hwy 98 at St Joe Beach (other side of the bridge) or further down in Bay County in Mexico Beach – Hwy 386 is the demarc between Gulf Co & Bay Co – that awful smell was Arizona Chemical and much to the delight of tourists & tourist lovers it closed this summer!!!!
