Invest in your future
A backyard rental apartment is an investment in your future. It can generate income for your family and at the same time provide quality housing in your city.
Determine your potential income:
01
Determine market rent in your area.
Local 1-bedroom rents:
Easthampton: $900-$1,150
Northampton: $1,000-$1,250
Amherst: $1,000-$1,250
02
Estimate expenses
Insurance ($500) | Maintenance ($500) | Landscaping ($200) | Taxes ($300)
03
Do some math
Rent MINUS expenses = CASH in your pocket
$12,000 – $1,500 = $10,500 CASH
Earn real money by helping to provide quality housing.
BUT– it’s about more than money
We have a housing shortage. American families and aging citizens are facing a crises. The only solution is adding more, affordable, high quality housing units.
Your backyard (or side yard) can be part of the solution.
