Alternatives To Selling Your Home In A Buyers Market

Homeowners don't need to be told that this is not the best time in most places to get the best price for their property. Sometimes selling is not an option it's a must and if that is the case then you do what you have to do but for those who might benefit from some creative solutions here is something that might be of interest and of help in bringing in extra cash or allow you to stay in the home you love but don't need as much home or make it possible to get back on track if you've fallen on hard times and have a problem meeting your obligations. storage

A new trend is renting out space in your home, your attic, a spare bedroom, garage,
storage building, or any other space you can do without.  Who would be interested in renting this type of space?  There are a variety of situations that someone might be in the market for renting space like this.  A spare room might bring in a nice $150 a month.


You can advertise online at www.sparefoot.com or www.storeatmyhouse.com there are a number of ways to advertise your space.  Be cautious as with any other advertisement that would bring someone to your home it is better to be too cautious than not cautious enough. You need to make sure you know what is going to be stored and references for whomever is going to do the storing.

 

If  boxes and closed containers are invloved you have a right to inspect  the contents before you allow them to be kept on your property but with some common sense safeguards you might find that it is a good solution for some of your challenges.

Sally,

This is a very timely post. I know several people doing this. My daughter rented a room from a homeowner who needed extra income. He rented out a couple bedrooms and levels of his home. Another person I know of, consolidated her family in one section of the home so they could rent out another part...Trying times force people to be creative.

Excellent post and I'd never thought of renting actual storage space in the home.
