Preparing Guest Rooms for Holiday Visitors
The holidays often bring family and friends to stay, making it the perfect time to give your guest space a little extra attention. Start with fresh linens, cozy blankets, and plenty of pillows to create a comfortable retreat. Clearing out closet or dresser space gives visitors room to unpack, while thoughtful details like a bedside lamp, phone charger, and extra towels add a hotel-like touch. You can also bring in a bit of holiday cheer with seasonal décor, a scented candle, or even a small welcome basket with snacks and water bottles. Preparing your guest room in advance not only helps your visitors feel cared for but also allows you to enjoy the season with less stress and more time to make lasting memories.
- When you need to work on your credit. Maybe your credit score is just starting to recover, but you need more time to pay down debts for a couple of years. With rent-to-own, you could start investing in a home while you bring up your score.
- You’re close, but not quite ready to secure a mortgage. You might have a good job with a significantly bigger salary, but you haven’t been there long enough for a lender to consider it a stable source of income. Or maybe you’re self-employed and you’re still building a reliable track record. Rent-to-own allows time to build personal wealth and financial credibility while working toward your homeownership goals.
- When you know you’re going to buy when the lease expires. If you’re not ready to buy when the lease expires, then you will lose any rent credit, i.e. investment, you’ve put into the home.
