its a 2 storey SEMI D. Rental so so. cant cover instalment.

the house is not big. Part of.d extra land full.of grass not taken care by previous tenant.

house is almost empty. no kitchen cabinet. Just lighting and fan only.

Any advice? minimal.cost to make my property easy to let out.
ANY kitchen cabinet budget idea. ready made?

Ask yourself. If you are the tenant and to rent it, what you wish the house got? Obviously you are not going to buy aircon and sofa sets or to paint the house.

Most tenants also dont even bother with grass on terrace house unless they like gardening. Most is they cut once a year when approaching festive celebration.

Why pay to cut the grass when they don't use the land ?

The demand from a tenant to furnish the house is never ending. After that, it gets damaged because he don't care or is cheapo quality fix by landlord.

Not many landlords are lucky to have a good tenants.

For your case, gip it a coat of paint & install a kitchen cabinet. The rest, ask the tenant to do it and you charge a cheaper rent compare to your neighbours.

unfurnished probably can only rent to those in light commercial e.g. tuition centre, childcare, legal firm, accounting firm, dental, courier service etc...

If rent full furnish, then go for homestay business.

My previous homestay business, if every weekend occupied, make money oredi. Weekday booking considered bonus.

Provided there must be something around the area to let people use the homestay. Not necessary tourist attractions.
