A short conversational excerpt from a YouTube video by Mundo Sanchez about problems filling a five-bedroom, two-bath co-living property. Speakers report that prospective tenants strongly prefer private bathrooms, making a 5-bed/2-bath ratio hard to rent; shared-bathroom cleanliness conflicts also deter tenants.
The that is the number one reason why I lose prospective tenants. I have a co living property. It's a five bed, two bath and before I did it, you know, I always heard like the ratio of like three beds to one bath. Boy was I wrong. The that is the number one reason why I lose prospective tenants. Like all the higher quality tenants that come in, they're just all fixated on the private bathroom. Like they all want the private bathroom and I lose so many people it's hard to fill the property because it's a five bed, two bath and like I didn't get it until I got in it. And I'm like, yeah, this sucks. It's just that ratio. It's just people can't get over it.
I mean, have you shared a bathroom as an adult with someone who was. I've shared a bathroom with someone who wasn't as clean as me. And the reality is whoever's the most clean person loses every time. So I just think to myself, why not try to get to a point where it is more one.
