Updates, Make Readies
Aside from obvious repairs- what are things that can be budget friendly, but you find really help update the unit or seem to attract more eyes?
I have realized that a fully updated until will rent 50 times over one that is in perfect shape, but full of the mid 80s-90s brown. However, it’s obviously not probable to fully remodel every unit. So, I am trying to find that perfect balance, what are little upgrades you all do that really help uplift units that are a little drab?
It’s very apparent that old brown wood work is OUT. However, replacing all the trim/doors or having all of that pulled and painted.... while I think it would look awesome- is that probable?
