Lease takeover available for a charming 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home located in the Porters Community, just minutes from downtown Gainesville and Depot Park. The home will be available starting January 1, 2026, with the lease running through August 2026 and the option to renew.
This unfurnished home gives you the freedom to design your space as you like, and select pieces of furniture may be available for purchase from the current tenants. The property includes free on-site parking for two vehicles and comes with a washer and dryer in the unit. Rent is $1,700 per month total, whether for a single tenant or split between two. The home is situated in a quiet, walkable neighborhood close to the University of Florida, local restaurants, and shops ideal for students, young professionals, or anyone looking to live near the heart of Gainesville.
Utility records can be provided to give you an idea of average monthly costs, which typically run around $200 depending on the season. The lease transfer process is quick and handled through the property manager, and the new tenants will also sign a release agreement drafted by the current tenants.
Please reach out for additional photos or questions. Please send me a message to get set up with the management company to sign over the paperwork. Do NOT complete the application on Zillow. NOTE: We are not the property managers, so rent is not negotiable and the new tenants will agree to sign a release agreement with the current tenants to transfer the lease. We're hoping to fill the space quickly and appreciate serious inquiries only.
Renter pays utilities set up through GRU, internet, and any cable wanted. Property management pays for pest control and yard work and has maintenance staff. 2 parking spots included.
