Value add opportunities for apartments buildings: List of Ideas?

[Theo Hicks]

Hi! I am compiling a list of all the potential value-add opportunities for multifamily rehabs and renovations with the goal of increasing rents. Here is what I have so far: 

• Add wash and dryer units
• Stainless steel appliances
• Update light fixtures
• New hardware for bathroom (cabinet, sink, shower)
• New hardware for kitchen (cabinets, sink)
• Build a fence around ground floor patio 
• Build carports
• RUBs program
• Charge for garbage pick-up
• Amenities based on demographic (soccer field, BBQ pit, etc.)
• Adding an extra room

For other multifamily investors out there, what are some ways you've added value to an apartment to raise rents?
