Must Have Tools for Landlord

[Megan Phillips]

Hi All,

This may be a newbie question, but what tools would you consider "must haves" when planning to do at least some rehab work yourself on properties. Think painting, some flooring, replacing vanities/toilets, putting in some insulation, replacing P traps under sinks, potentially hanging gutters, etc -- and general around the house help.

Are there tools you simply can't live without that make specific jobs you always do yourself much easier?

Also any recommendations on brands and general price ranges would be great.

I was told I should plan on getting a decent impact drill/wrench, but that's all I've got planned so far (besides basics: hammer, tape measurer, etc)

Thanks!
