This is an opportunity for someone moving to the area to have a place to stay until they find a permanent residence or close on a home. This is not a long term rental. I'm offering a unique rental arrangement on my fully furnished 1920s Key West-style bungalow in St. Pete's historic uptown / Lang Bungalow district, just a short walk to downtown, Vinoy Park, the waterfront, Nova 535, and the shuffleboard courts. Instead of full market rent (around $2,400 $2,600/month for this area), I'm looking for a reliable, capable handyman/handywoman who can trade 10 hours of work per week in exchange for a reduced rent of $1,000/month.
