How to earn rental income from your property

I’ve been renting out properties for the past 10 years. Here are my top tips for maximizing rental income:

  1. Location near offices/universities = consistent demand
  2. Fully furnished apartments command 30-50% higher rent
  3. Keep the property well-maintained — tenants pay more for well-kept spaces
  4. Serviced apartments (for expats) can earn 2-3x normal rent
  5. Use a professional property manager if you have multiple units

Happy to answer specific questions about rental property investment.

Good discussion! I think we should also consider the impact of new infrastructure projects on property values.

Has anyone had experience with the new online property registration system? Is it actually faster?

What about properties outside of Dhaka? I think smaller cities offer much better value for money.

The regulatory environment is changing rapidly. Some of these processes might be different now with the new digital systems.

I completely agree with this. Had a very similar experience when I was looking for property last year.

I had the opposite experience actually. In my case, the process was much smoother than expected.

I think the key takeaway here is to take your time and not rush into any property purchase.

This happened to my friend too. He ended up losing money because he didn’t do proper due diligence.
