Making money with multiple roommates




As an investment property owner, making money is the key to your success and as every Landlord understands, getting good Tenants is also key to a successful rental business. The question becomes, what parameters do you use to evaluate potential Tenants and how do you keep your property filled.
As a Property Manager, I deal with all kinds of Landlords and all of them have different Ideas of how they want to market their property and what parameters they want to use to fill their properties. Most of the time, I can accommodate the will of the Landlord as long as their parameters are fair and have no discriminatory intentions.

Dealing with Roommates


As anyone who deals with Tenants understand, dealing with one family per home is difficult enough, but dealing with multiple individuals can become a nightmare. Now you may say that having multiple roommates is no different than managing a multi unit building, but not true. In a multi unit building each family is separated by walls and locked doors, in a multi roommate situation, much of the property is shared and as all of us who have grown up with siblings know, sharing is not always easy.
So the question is how do you make money and keep your sanity with a roommate situation. For me, If a Landlord wants me to manage a roommate situation, I will charge more money than I normally do, just because of the added headaches that are going to come, and the Landlord will have to accept the house rules I put down for the Tenants to sign. What I have learned from experience in these situations is that it can become more of a babysitting situation, than a management issue.

Privacy

One of the big issues that I have had to deal with in roommate situations is the privacy issues. The Bedrooms are going to be the only private space the roommates have and those private spaces need to be respected by all. If a roommate has problems with respecting the private space of other Roommates then that roommate has to go.

Common area

In the common space of the property, Tenants have to share and understand that all the roommates have to have access equally to those areas. Roommates can make their own rules regarding when each can use these areas as long as all the roommates agree. Common area situations are the most complained about problems that come from Roommate/Tenants.


Visitors

Another big issue is visitors to the property. The visitors to the property also have to abide by the privacy and the sharing rules, but if a visitor is making one of the roommates uncomfortable, then as a Property Manager, I will always take the side of the Paying Tenant and all the roommates need to understand that. Each roommate has the right to enjoy the property and that means that if someone who does not have a Tenant’s right to be on the property, is creating an issue with that enjoyment, then that has to be dealt with. You can see the problems that can arise from this; sometimes the Roommate is just being vindictive and does not for some reason like the visitor. It can be jealousy or just different personalities, but since the Property Manager does not live there then they have to take the side of the Tenant.

Money to be made

With all the Problems that Roommate/Tenant situations can bring, there is money to be made in this type of rental business. When you have a property near a collage, you will have no problem renting the individual rooms. Roommate/Tenant situations are very common Near Beaches and other recreational areas. If you are willing to deal with turnover and all the other problems we talked about, you can make more money renting the rooms then you can renting the entire house to a single person or family.

I have talked about, in other blogs how people who have children in college, buy a home near the college for their children to live in and they rent out the other rooms to pay for the mortgage. This is a good way to make sure your son, or daughter has a nice place to live, but also pay for some of the bills.

As a Property Manager, Roommate/Tenant situations are not ideal situations, but if you do take one on to manage, having rules are very important to try and keep your sanity.

What my clients are saying  

5 reviews 5.0 star rating 1/21/2016 I was tired of using a large management team to manage my investment property. I felt I was always on the back burner. I was recommended to Tony from a business associate, he assured me I would be very pleased. Well that was an understatement, Tony is amazing. He's above all honest and always available for my concerns. I'm not as well versed as other investors with property management and maintenance and tenant relations, Tony has been an excellent partner and has guided me through quite a bit of needed repairs and worked far beyond what was expected to help turn my little investment into quite a prosperous investment, If what your looking for is prompt return calls, honest direction and someone very knowledgeable with general contractors and real estate laws, Tony is your man.
