How many of you handle turnover painting/cleaning yourself?

[George Smith]

After speaking to many investors at my local REI, it seems like many of them do their own painting/cleaning/maintenance during a turnover. I realize the benefit because painting alone can be an expensive cost but Im trying to not get pulled away from the investor side of things(as well time I get to spend with my two kids under 3 yrs old). I the capital region (albany/colonie) area, I believe that most investors look at $100. a door in this area and were definitely not affected my market crashes as much as other areas. It just seems like most people comment that if you dont do the turnover yourself, theres not much profit left. I could question there investments but many of them area seasoned investors.

Im just curious on your involvement, philosophy, and systems used when turning properties.

Thank you,

George
