That also works well because it looks like a residence. It costs a bit to furnish it, but hey, they are just props and can be picked up from yard sales and salvation army stores.
Having said all that, I know rent locations and that gives me the flexibility of having different looks. Costs less, but surprisingly not a lot less, but it does keep things kind of fresh.

a "studio" can also be a one bedroom apt with a living room kitchen dining room bathroom and BAM u have 4 different sets to shoot in. I did it that was my second and 3rd studios
Change the bg a bit with a few diff pictures different bed spread lampo and BAM u have another set
Im sure u can get a 1 bdrm apt in middle america for under 650 a month.
Go to salvation army and get great stuff for your sets. I did. I started my first cam studio for less then 1500 in sets and equip .
