Today the rental housing market, especially in big cities, is rich in a wide variety of options. How to make sure that it is your apartment that attracts the attention of a decent and wealthy tenant? We understand together with the designer Asia Orlova.
First of all, you need to take into account the fact that projects for short-term and long-term lease will have significant differences. So, some things that are mandatory for permanent residence in an apartment for short term rent can be simplified. For example, the amount of storage space, the functional features of the kitchen, the organization of sleeping places will vary.
What should you pay attention to when registering an apartment for short-term rent?
Light background
To visually enlarge the space and create a feeling of cleanliness, it is better to paint the walls in the apartment in white or light gray tones. In addition, such a neutral background will not bind you to anything when choosing furniture or decor. So you can add any color accents to the interior.
Small kitchen
For those who rent a house for a short time, a large kitchen functionality is not at all necessary. You do not need to provide for a full cooking cycle: do without an oven or dishwasher if the budget is limited.
A smaller refrigerator is also worth considering, perhaps even without a freezer. People who come to rest for a week are unlikely to bake pies or freeze supplies.
Reliable materials
This applies not only to decoration, but also to furniture. Preference should be given to materials that are as resistant to damage as possible - washable paint, duropolymer moldings and wear-resistant quartz vinyl tiles.
You should not use technically complex and financially expensive solutions, it is better to spend money on better and more reliable furniture in the bedroom and good mattresses.
Rapid update capability
Since the apartment must be cleaned after each tenant, it is worth making this process as simple as possible. Removable covers on furniture, curtains that are suitable for washing in a machine, as well as the absence or minimum of carpets will help you with this. An additional plus will be the mobility of the furniture.
Spectacular picture
When posting an offer on online housing search platforms, it is important that the prospective tenant catches their eye on your property. Too simple and basic interior runs the risk of getting lost among other proposals. It should have a "zest".
At the same time, it is not worth piling up the interior with things with a pronounced personality, it may not suit everyone's taste. Before publishing the offer, you can hire an interior photographer who can properly present all the advantages of your apartment.
