Establishing A New Culture In A Building

Looked at a multi today, nice place, great location, lots of potential...

...but stuff everywhere. Old tv's, appliances, furniture...just shtuff...in the hallways...and the basement?

Oh

My

God...

In my multi, it's taken a while, but the hallways are clear, the basement is clear and clean.

I hope I get this one, but changing tenant attitudes toward keeping the common areas uncluttered and clean will be an uphill battle. They're all long term, and obviously set in their ways.

But if I get it, I'll get there. I'm going to try and keep them. I think leading by example is the way.
