A Happy Tenant Can Stay a Tenant Longer
A lavish backyard is an excellent amenity for your Long Beach rental. It can be a place where your tenants enjoy the year-round heat, experience a relaxing afternoon, or host entertaining parties. Not only will these factors draw tenants to your rental, but they will also increase your property value and, subsequently, make you more money.
Here are a variety of additions that will give your tenants a fantastic outdoor experience.
Fencing
Privacy is an essential aspect of any residence, especially in a large city like Long Beach. Installing fencing will help your tenants feel safe and comfortable in their own home.
There are various items to consider regarding fencing for your rental. It is important to take these factors into account when choosing the fencing that is best for your rental property.
Outdoor Lighting
Another way to make your tenants feel protected is by adding outdoor lighting across your rental property. Most notably, outdoor lighting provides ambiance and can illuminate pathways to provide necessary guidance during the night. Without it, your tenants are more likely to stumble or fall in the dark.
Furthermore, outdoor lighting keeps your rental’s backyard lit and visible. Burglars are less likely to infiltrate a property when they or their shadows can easily be seen.

Outdoor Living Space
One of the positives of living in Southern California is lounging outside with a good book and a cool drink. Designing a spacious outdoor living space can give your rental a competitive edge that others may lack. Comfortable and cushioned lounge seats, a dining set, and a grill are all amazing items that can make your outdoor living space a wonderful and engaging space perfect for laid-back leisure or joyous partying.
Additionally, if your rental has a large enough backyard, consider putting in a pool. Though they require various safety measures, rentals with pools
provide immense advantages for you and your tenants.
Overall, an expansive and tasteful outdoor living space can be a rewarding investment that significantly interests tenants.
Outdoor Technology
Even outdoors, the latest technologies can intrigue tenants and further enhance their backyard experience.
For starters, a portable Bluetooth speaker can provide optimal outdoor volume and accompany your tenants when they unwind or party outside. Brands like AR Speakers are relatively inexpensive, ranging from $120 to $160. All four of their models come with phenomenal sound quality and require infrequent charging. This makes them ideal for both lengthy parties and intimate gatherings.
Also, a projector and simple tarp can transform family movie night into a novel outdoor affair. Your tenants can play films, TV shows, music videos, and even video games on their projector. The big screen combined with the outdoor environment will take them back to the days of parking at a drive-in movie theater. Outdoor projectors can cost anywhere from $50 to $150, and you can find many models at Best Buy.
Installing the latest technologies can intrigue tenants and further enhance their outdoor experience.
Incorporating any one of these elements can make your rental’s backyard an enticing and exciting space. Meeting with a property management company can help you narrow down which outdoor ideas are best for your Long Beach rental.
