So, I have a garage with space for two cars, but I’m not using it. I want to rent out the space on neighbor.com, but I’m worried about sketchy people storing unknown things in there. Has anyone used this site before and can share their experiences?
Just have them sign a contract stating they can’t store ____ on the property. Fill in the blank with anything you don’t want to store for someone else. This way, if anything questionable is in the boxes, you’re protected.
Hi…It’s understandable to have concerns about renting out your garage space to strangers. While Neighbor.com may have reviews and ratings to help you assess potential renters, it’s always a good idea to take some precautions to protect your property. Here are a few suggestions:
- Screen potential renters carefully: Ask for references or previous rental history, and consider conducting background checks if possible.
- Have a clear rental agreement: Outline rules and expectations for using the space, including what items are allowed to be stored and any restrictions.
- Install security measures: Consider installing security cameras or a secure locking system to monitor activity and deter unauthorized access
Personally, I have not had a direct experience but people are earning money with Neighbor.com by renting out their unused space. The key to maximizing your earnings lies in demand and the specific type of space you offer.
Neighbor hosts have the potential to generate a respectable monthly passive income, with earnings varying based on the type of storage space available. While numerous listings on Neighbor fall within the $30 to $100 per month range, there are also opportunities to rent out storage spaces for several hundred dollars per month or even higher.
