If you’re a landlord, there are 8 amenities your rental should consider including:

1. Dishwasher – Rentals without dishwashers may experience more turnover than those that include one. 2. Washer and Dryer – With all the great space-saver appliances on the market, there is no excuse not to find room for a washer/dryer unit. 3. Alarm System – Security systems cost a few hundred dollars and can add value to your rental. 4. Pest Control, Gardener, Pool Service – Renters are looking for low-maintenance homes. Including these services in your rent also ensures your property stays in great condition. 5. Central Air conditioning – Homes with central air conditioning rather than wall units always command higher rents than those without. 6. Private Parking – Whenever possible, make sure there is a designated parking spot for the renter. 7. Outdoor Space – While not always possible, when looking for new investment properties, opt for one with outdoor space. 8. Home Warranty – avoid unexpected repair costs by adding a home warranty to the property.

Make sure your unit stands out by offering the amenities modern renters want.
