Hi Shiffy,

First, congrats on that house. It looks like a really beautiful place.

I don't think you will have any luck renting it to people on GFY without furniture because if anyone wants to do any photo shoots, they want to come in, shoot, and leave, without worrying about things like furniture. They need beds, detailed decor, etc. (And besides sometimes dealing with models is headache by itself lol!)

However, your gazebo & pool area look great and seem to have everything. If I were you, I would rent those locations out for $2000.00 per day. Why? Well first the location looks great, photographers are always looking for something different, and companies want to treat their top models to a little bit of the good life.

Plus, you know if a whole crew comes in, they will want to use other parts of your house anyway for things like changing rooms, make-up, etc. And if they're doing a video shoot, they may run cables and lighting everywhere, computers, etc.

Besides that, you will definately have out of pocket expenses. If you are going to rent the location out, you may have to charge tax, or require insurance, etc. What happens if someone slips and falls in your house or by the pool? And, do you really want to go through all of this headache for less than $2000?

I don't know anything about real estate but what DaddyHalbucks said makes sense to me. $20,000 a month sounds like a fair amount. Again that house is amazing.

Good luck!
