what do you think? Michael Estepp -->>> I think the first thing you might want to check is your local competition. That would give you a good idea on where your pricing should be. If you do a Google search, you will find quite a bit of information related to your request: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...editing+rental |

It might be tough getting people to utilize your apartment setup. Of course it all depends on where it is located. If you are in a loft, it might work. There are several studio/rental houses in Houston based out of lofts. Pricing wise it comes down to (again) your local market. I would do a market analysis and understand where everybody sits. From here you would be able to calculate a price based upon your setup. Good luck and keep us informed as to how it turns out for you. |
