Glad you liked TV. Hopefully you will buy a home in the near future.

I bought a home in June, 2010. I wanted to rent it out unfurnished. In that way, the tenants pay all utilities and I don't have to buy furniture. The downside is the tenants are long term, so I couldn't use my place. That was ok since I wasn't planning on being there until 2012. I used Villages Prop Mgmt. They found a long term tenant for me within a couple of months. I more than covered my expenses (I didn't have a mortgage) and had $ left. I would be happy to share what the rent was if you send me PM. My tenant wanted to extend the lease for another year, but I declined because I will be using my home beginning in Jan. By the way, Villages Prop Mgmt told me that currently people are looking for long term unfurnished rentals. Good luck.
