Painting cabinets-BRRRR return on investment

[Valerie Smith]

Looking at a duplex listed for $106k to BRRRR. We think it could maybe appraise around $130k ARV. It's in a B neighborhood. They have 90's oak cabinets with off-white Formica countertops. One thought is we don't want to paint because of the wear & tear of painting & upkeep with renters. (Repainting May Be required every time someone moves out). BUT when looking to BRRRR does painting them give a GREAT return on investment? We don't want to overdo this duplex for the area & I really don't want to repaint them every few years. Plus if we paint cabinets then we may need to replace the counters since they have wear & tear. THOUGHTS?
