Laundry in 1 Bedroom Units for Voucher Holders?

Will Johnston

Posted

I'm doing a reno on a couple of 1-bedroom units, and while I'll rent to anyone, my target tenant is voucher holders.

I've looked into adding laundry, and the cost is going to be 8-10k.  The units are in a decent but not great neighborhood west of the river.  I'm concerned that without the laundry I'll have trouble finding tenants, as it seems there's a lot of inventory of 1 bedroom units.

Any insights from folks who have worked with voucher holders would be most appreciated.

If you have room for a laundry , why not make it a 2nd bedroom ?
