Ok, need opinion here.
Looking at a few places in Reston in my price range, and I'm running across a fairly common layout for houses - 3 story, 2 BR's on the upper level, with a master bath on the upper level and full bath on the lower level along with an office/living/rec room that could be used as a 3rd BR, and no garage.
Now, if I buy a place I'm probably going to want a roommate to defer costs initially. I'm also going to want to not share a bathroom and use the lower level space as a bike/rec room. Is it a deal breaker for a tennant to rent an upstairs bedroom and shower downstairs?
