As a
newbie to the rental property business, you may be nervous about making that
first purchase of your phoenix investment property home. Do you know what things to
consider to attract renters? If you have ever rented a home yourself, then you
have experience in what home renters are looking for. Most homes are renting to
families who are happy with the less burdened renter lifestyle, or who are new
to an area and checking out that area before they buy a home. As in every part
of the Phoenix property management
process, your Phoenix property management team can help answer any questions you may have
during the purchasing phase and represent you in the sale. Here are few suggestions from the pros:
1)
Look for homes no older than 15 years. This will help keep down maintenance
costs and save you money long term.
3)
Rental properties should have at least 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and be
located in neighborhoods where home values are appreciating. This allows you as
the owner to charge a higher rent.
4)
Consider the proximity of the property to things people need and/or want such as shopping and dining.
5)
If the home is in a HOA, there may be fees for violations and signage and
parking rules. Be sure to identify what the HOA codes are and how you will
enforce them with your tenants.
Remember
that the decisions you are making in the purchasing process are ones that will
affect you long term. The property type you choose will affect what type of
potential tenants you attract, and how long the home stays vacant. These are
all things to consider as you begin your journey into the rental property
industry. By making smart decisions today, you and your Phoenix property
management team will be pleased with your future results.
