Solution = cheap hardwood/linoleum floors and no pet policy. A friend of mine rented the house beside mine for a period of time ending last year. I went in it for the first time while he was living there and to my amazement, it has remained just as nice inside as my house is, and I believe he was the 6th party through it in the roughly 6 years that I had lived there (at that time), and that house is a few years older than mine.A wise landlord once told me to not have any sort of sentiment toward a specific house/property if you are going to rent it out. For instance, I am very OCD about **** and like to keep my **** nice. It would definitely bother me to some extent to see my current house not kept up as I would keep it up if someone were renting it. But I will understand that going in and treat it solely as a business utensil, should I decide to rent it.I was over at Monte's one time, who lives in a pretty nice sub division in Rainsville and he pointed at a lot a few over from his, which held a nice red brick house roughly 2k+ sq ft, only a few years old and said it rents out for $900 a month. I figure it was roughly $150k-ish house/land, I was just amazed that something like that rents out for that. Now at that point, I have trouble justifying someone renting vs. buying, unless they are temporarily relocated for work or something of the sort, and that does happen often too.
