A New Market For Property Investors: Appealing To Small Business Owners

Atlanta real estate investors are taking a not-so-risky gamble that relies on a provision in Atlanta code: It lets rental units offer space for a home-based business complete with the allowance for one employee. For example, at the corner of MccLendon and Brooks Avenues, a two unit space will be marketed as a home office. The idea is for these to have space for a home-based businesses like consulting businesses, accountants or therapists. The office spaces are downstairs and the living quarters are upstairs.

More and more people are working from home and telecommuting too. So, even if making space available for a commercial entryway isn’t in your plans as a property investor, this new trend sparks other ideas too. Developments once used to boast a laundry facility as a common area. These days, a community office or conference room can be an attractive amenity for your property too.  In dormitories across the nation, gaming centers are also springing up. This same generation will soon be looking for condos to purchase and apartments to rent as well. Creative amenities that include the interests of this generation will surely help investment properties stand out.
