If you’re caught up in the crisis, any way to make money and survive is a good one. That doesn’t always overcome the feat of doing something new, or being responsible for the wellbeing of others. Renting out your home is a way of keeping the property if you can’t afford it yourself. Corporate rentals are a more gentle way to get into the rental market. The rental market can be viewed quite negatively if you don’t know a great deal about it. For many of us, we rented when we were either at college or while we were still very young. We may not have treated our rented properties as well as we might, and we may have had a few too many parties for our landlords liking. That is the enduring memory of renting for many of us, but times have changed just as much as we have. Sure, properties in college areas are going to be used and abused, but those in downtown, or nice suburban areas aren’t necessarily going to meet the same fate. Corporate rentals are a way of leasing a property while maintaining a certain standard of tenant. Not all young people are trouble, in fact, few of them are, but they get the most headlines. Any homeowner who wants to rent out their home, but are a little scared should try renting it to a corporate client instead. While money is tight across the board, many companies have staff who move around. They are gradually waking up to the fact that for longer stays, a corporate apartment or home works out much cheaper, and offers much more to the renter. That makes them quite popular, which is where you come in. If you have a suitable property, in a nice area, near to business parks, downtown districts and transport links, you may be able to rent the property to professional tenants. It is a great way to ease oneself into renting property and a great way to ensure your property is well looked after. The average corporate renter is a professional person in their mid-twenties onwards and has a sense of responsibility. The company pays the rent and any indemnities. Rental periods are generally a minimum of 30 days, but can go on for up to a year. They are relatively low maintenance and don’t tend to create much of a fuss. Corporate rentals to tend to demand a higher standard of property, but in return will pay decent rent. Wear and tear is also lower, as corporate tenants tend to live out of suitcases rather than move furniture in and out. While corporate lets won’t guarantee that the tenant behaves themselves, the chances are a lot lower. Plus, a company will pay for the damage, or pay the indemnity to cover it. Anyone considering renting a property but are a little scared of the responsibility, or the ramifications, should definitely consider corporate rentals.
