Unexpected vacancy - below market rent for Olympia duplex in natural setting Tired of crowded, noisy and overly dense apartment complexes? Or rental spaces that are not properly maintained? If yes, please consider our comfortable below-market-rent alternative. If interested, please read this entire post to see if you and this duplex would be a good fit. Two bedroom, one bath newly remodeled duplex with a fenced yard and carport near Ralph's Thriftway in northeast Olympia. No corporate ownership and no property managers. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT TENANTS IN EITHER UNIT. Available for a 6+ or 12-month lease starting sometime between Dec. 1, 2023 and Jan. 1, 2024. Two covered vehicle parking spaces plus free on-street parking in a very quiet neighborhood. Large backyard with deck. Landlord takes care of the yard. Washer & dryer included. All real red oak hardwood floors. Relaxing view of undeveloped wetland from LR and DR windows. One level, no stairs. Double-pane vinyl windows with screens. Motion sensor lights at front and back doors. This unit shares a common wall with the neighboring unit. Out of respect for the neighbor, priority consideration will be given to applicants who can comfortably observe "quiet hours" lease provisions. A dog will be considered on a case-by-case basis but MUST be housebroken and fixed; no exceptions. The area available for dogs is enclosed with a 5-foot chain link fence. Other conditions may apply. Sorry, but no other pets. The federal Housing and Urban Development agency currently pegs 2024 fair market rent for a 2-bedroom unit in Thurston County as $1802 per month. Our rent is $1,550 without a dog and $1,600 with a dog. In addition to a refundable security deposit equal to the amount of rent, tenants with a dog will also be required to pay a refundable dog deposit of $400.

In exchange, we are looking for quiet, conscientious tenants who will take good care of the unit, be good neighbors, and pay the rent on time.
