Tenant proofing suggestions? Flooring and windows?
Hi there,
I recently purchased some units that have been and will continue to be rented out to college students. I am currently in the process of repainting some units and doing some other minor repairs between tenants. Some of the windows currently have blinds. Some are broken and some are missing. Personally I feel like blinds break so easily. Any suggestions for a more durable window fixture? I was considering putting up curtain rods with some inexpensive white curtains. I thought they would be harder to break and easy to bleach and wash between tenants. What do you think? Or maybe new blinds are the best option after all?? I am also looking for suggestions for durable flooring and paint.
