When it comes to rentals posted on Craigslist, many of us automatically think of home and apartment rentals. Although you will find these, you will also find garage rentals. Renting a garage from a poster on Craigslist.org sounds nice, but it does have its pros and cons. What are they?<\/p>\n
The Pros<\/b><\/p>\n
The options you have. Perform a search for garage rentals on Craigslist or browse the website and you will get a lot of offers. There are one, two, or even three car garages for rent. Your rental options vary too. Some posters advertise long-term rentals, such as car storage for the winter. You can also find daily rentals, which is nice if you need a safe, indoor place to do your own car repairs.<\/p>\n
The garage you never had. Millions of Americans could benefit from having a garage, but they just don’t have access to one. Rentals advertised on Craigslist give you the garage you never had. As previously stated, you can store a car or other belongings long-term or use short-term rentals for do-it-yourself car repairs. If you don’t have a covered building on your property, renting may be your only option.<\/p>\n
Cheap prices. Many of the individuals who have garages and other covered buildings advertised for rent on Craigslist are homeowners. They aren’t in the professional renting business, which should translate into cheaper prices. If looking for long-term storage, compare the rent costs with that of a professional storage facility. If looking to do your own car repairs, add the rental costs to your auto parts costs and then compare to a professional auto repair service. Either way, you should save money.<\/p>\n
The Cons<\/b><\/p>\n
There are some risks. As previously stated, most of the posters on Craigslist who have a garage rental are homeowners. They aren’t using it, so they figure they could make money with a rental. You will likely have a verbal agreement, not a formal contract as you would with an established storage business. If you can’t install your own padlock, know that the garage owner could enter and access your items at any time. Although most are honest, the risk is always there.<\/p>\n
As you can see, there are some risks to renting a garage posted on Craigslist, but there are far more benefits. Whether you need a long-term or short-term rental, find garages, storage buildings, and sheds on Craigslist.org with ease.
