Rehab for rent ready conditions

[Mogi P.]

Does anyone have any general guidelines/tips for rehabbing to rent ready condition as oppose to retail sell condition?

I understand you can get away with marginal quality materials, but where does and doesn't this apply? Paint quality, appliances, flooring, etc.

depends on the income class...i do lower to median income tenants..no ceiling fans, no icemakers, no dishwashers, no garbage disposals, no carpet..anything that's not required by minimum housing code is something that they can braek and will expect you to fix...carpet will need to be changed between tenants...i paint my hardwood floors brown instad of sanding and staining bc most tenatns will put rugs down on them anyawys...i try to use commerical grade VCT tiles as mucha s possible.you can buff them and clean them up pretty easily...just think durability...you want stuff that will last and look decent in 5 years still...
