Is it a room for rent in a shared house? Don’t list it as a house!
Is it a basement apartment in a house? Don’t list it as a house!
Is it an ADU with other tenants living in another attached ADU? Don’t list it as a house!
Is it a townhome attached to other townhomes? Don’t list it as a house!
Is it an apartment in an apartment complex? Don’t list it as a house!
Is it a standalone house where the tenant has it all to themselves? Then YES, list it as a house!
FFS, why does this need to be said? Easily HALF the listings out there are listed inaccurately, making filters useless! Who TF do you think you’re fooling by listing it inaccurately? Like your logic is that you’re casting a wider net as if someone looking for a house is going to be presented with your ADU and be like, “yeah I’ll rent that even though I’m looking for a house??”
The housing search is already difficult enough without having to sift through hundreds of listings to find “room in a shared house” or “mother-in-law suite” buried somewhere in the description!

Bring on the downvotes!
