What repairs can you leave until after listing but before showing?
Getting ready to list my first rental property after an extensive reno. The punch list is taking forever to finish! I'm curious what more experienced investors will leave to finish repairing after they list the property, but before they start to show it (or lease it).

Appreciate the tips. Very helpful! I need to install LVP throughout, replace bathroom vanity, toilet, and fixtures, install a new dishwasher, and finish a 300 sqft ADU with drywall, paint, and LVP that can be used as an office, rec room, etc. I figured I at least need to get these completed before photos and listing. I also plan to touch-up paint, fix kitchen cabinet drawers, replace outlets and a few door handles. It seems like I would be cutting it close to try to finish, list, and lease it starting March 1?
Sounds like you still have a ways to go! I think a March 1 lease might be a little out of reach.. Unless you can knock all of those items out in the next week, price competitively in the market and are in a hot area.
If you need rental comps for your area, let me know! I can shoot them your way. Also happy to share market updates. :)
Good luck!!
