Rental Rehab Too Nice for a Rental?
Hello all,
I currently completed a rehab of a house I planned to rent. A few of my colleagues are suggesting I try to sell the house. They are telling me that the house is fixed up too nice for a rental. They are under the impression that the tenants are going to get in the house and tear it up. I kind of had no choice with some of the rehab options being that the interior of the house was stripped down to the studs. I had to replace everything from plumbing, electrical, drywall etc. These guys are experienced with rentals and I respect their opinion but I think it's a bad Time to attempt to sell a home right now in this market. And I need to get some income coming in... What do you guys think?
