As a landlord, you're always searching for a new place to turn into a profitable rental property. Keep a few of these features in mind when doing so, as they can either make (or break) your listing.

Neighborhood

When looking for a rental property, keep the neighborhood in mind. The neighborhood in which you buy a rental property will determine the types of tenants that will eventually live there.

For example, if you buy a rental property near a university, you probably have a clear idea of who your potential tenants will be.

Taxes

When looking for your ideal rental property, ensure that you are looking in areas with low property taxes. Property taxes vary depending on the area. However, keep in mind, high property taxes aren’t always a negative aspect.

If the neighborhood fits a lot of the other requirements, it may be a suitable option. You must outweigh the advantages and disadvantages in this case.

Schools

When looking for a rental property, be sure to take a look at the schools surrounding. A good school could potentially raise your profits.

If you are buying or looking at family-sized homes, then the schools in the area should definitely be taken into account.

Amenities

Many tenants see having a lot of amenities as a huge bonus when deciding on which property to rent out. Having a rental property that is close to a gym, restaurants, transportation, and especially parks, due to the COVID-19 pandemic is a bonus.

Having the right, or assortment of amenities in the surrounding area could add a lot of value to your listing.
