Repair shed or remove shed on a long term rental

Looking for advice on a shed i have on a long term rental. 

it needs approx. $3,500 worth of work to make half decent. Roof, siding, electrical

im holding the property for decades most likely and think ill need to repair it again in the future while i hold it. 


It seems like even if i keep the shed they dont really add value to properties anyway. This is a large 10x18 shed at least. Picture included


Do i keep it and repair it or tear it out? Not really wanting to leave it as is because it is an eyesore.

We had the same issue and just tore our shed down.  Did not add any value or rental income to the property and was an eyesore.  From a cash perspective, it was cheaper to tear it down than repair it.
