First time owning a rental. Tenant Turnover and Repaint?
Hello BP Family,
I recently purchased a quadplex and one of the units is vacant. My PM recommends repainting the whole unit. The unit is 2br/1.5 bath (1150 sqft) with a ceiling about 8 ft. I plan to repaint the unit over the weekend along with a handyman and knock it out. I have alot of free time. I plan to use the same/similar color already existing. And paint only the trim and the walls.
My question is as a noobie I am repainting the whole unit. For senior landlord do yall paint the whole unit after turnover? When do you repaint the whole unit? Can I paint indiivudal rooms?
If I repaint the whole unit does it sound like something that can be completed in a weekend? Never painted before but the handyman I am hiring has. I plan to not use tape and cut carefully around trim and edges. I also plan to paint the wall than the trim so I can paint faster on the walls.
Prep work isn't too much. There aren't many nail hole or holes. I do need to clean some wall thoughts.
