Patio ideas to increase rent

[Sid Naik]

having garden style small 600 sq ft units with almost 300 sq ft backyard for each unit in  Tucson .

the washer dryer connections are in the open in the back . I was thinking of adding a awning for shade and pavers on ground . since the units are so small  this extra space could also fit a table for dining besides making the laundry area shaded .will it help to increase rent ? my only intention is to get more rent ...
