Attracting remote worker for your Rentals

Employers are concerned about The Great Resignation because of its effect on employee retention. But, on the other hand, the employees can see this as an excellent opportunity to advance their careers and make more money. The pandemic brought on changes in the workplace, and some of the modifications will not go away. Remote working is one, and it creates an excellent chance for any tenant in San Diego.

San Diego Apartment with San Francisco Pay

Apartments are incredibly expensive in San Francisco and Silicon Valley. The monthly rent can be hundreds of dollars more than an identical apartment in San Diego. Here is the opportunity. San Diego tech worker contacts a software company in San Jose, seeking employment but not relocation. Nine times out of ten, the San Jose employer will agree to a remote working situation. So, that San Diego resident gets all the benefits of living in Southern California and getting paid Silicon Valley wages. It is a great arrangement and only requires an apartment set up for a remote working arrangement.

San Diego Landlords Can Benefit

Landlords in San Diego can take advantage of this working arrangement. If they can advertise their vacancy as suitable for remote working, they might fill that opening with a remote worker. Making some adjustments to the existing apartment. A remote working – friendly apartment should include:

• Adequate Wi-Fi speed. This is a sine qua non for remote workers. If you do not have it, get it, or forget it.
• Good lighting. Be sure that the working area is well lit and, if possible, sunlight coming into the room is going to be a plus. Good blinds that will block excessive sunlight are also a selling point.
• A Bona Fide Workspace. It requires some furniture such as a computer workstation, but that addition will pay for itself with the rent.
• Noise level. An apartment in a residential area can be subject to a lot of noise. White noise is something that many offices use to block out the sounds in the street. You can investigate this with any contractor who specializes in commercial buildings.
• Security. Many remote workers are supplied by their employers with computer hardware and software to perform their jobs. A worker is held responsible for the loss of either and must reimburse the employer. The apartment has to have adequate security to prevent a burglary.
• Local amenities. Do not hesitate to mention the apartment is close to a grocery or hardware store. If the apartment has a view overlooking a beautiful, natural environment, let that be known in any pictures.
