๐Ÿš€ Why Invest?

Proven Income: This property is generating steady rental income with 100% occupancy. ๐Ÿค‘

High Demand Area: Proximity to Duke Regional Hospital and Downtown Durham makes this an attractive location for tenants. ๐ŸŒŸ

Upside Potential: With updates, the propertyโ€™s rental income can increase significantly, transforming it into a cash flow powerhouse! ๐Ÿš€

PadSplit Benefits:

Increased Profitability: PadSplit hosts typically see a return on investment 2x higher than traditional rentals by renting rooms individually. This property is well-suited for this model, which could greatly enhance its profitability.

Reduced Risk: PadSplitโ€™s rent-by-the-room approach minimizes risks like vacancies or non-payment, as each room is rented individually, ensuring steady cash flow even if one tenant leaves.

Social Impact: By offering affordable housing, youโ€™re contributing to the community by providing much-needed accommodations close to essential services like Duke Regional Hospital.

Low Barriers for Tenants: PadSplit doesnโ€™t require high credit scores or spotless rental histories, which means a broader pool of potential tenants, ensuring continuous demand.

This is a rare opportunity to invest in a property with both strong financial returns and significant social impact, especially in a market with a growing need for affordable, shared housing solutions. Don't miss out on securing this unique investment on West Murray Ave, Durham, NC!

Average Weekly Room Rate: The average weekly rate for PadSplit rooms generally falls between $150 to $250 depending on the location and property condition. For a property like yours in Durham, which is close to a major hospital and downtown, the rate would likely be on the higher end of this range, around $200 to $250 per week.Occupancy Rate: PadSplit properties typically achieve an occupancy rate of over 90%. Given the strategic location of your property near Duke Regional Hospital and downtown, you can expect a high demand, which should help maintain or even exceed this average occupancy rate.Using these figures, if you were to rent out 10 rooms at an average rate of $225 per week, your monthly gross rental income could be around $9,000, assuming a full occupancy rate. Even with a slightly lower occupancy, the property would still generate significant income.This approach offers a substantial increase in revenue compared to traditional rentals and adds the benefit of consistent cash flow with lower vacancy risks, making it an excellent investment strategy.For more accurate estimates, I recommend using PadSplit's earnings calculator, which can provide tailored projections based on specific property detailsโ€‹ (PadSplit)โ€‹ (PadSplit).
