Do any of you experienced investors/landlords/property managers have effective strategies you use to make a unit more attractive?

But now there is an ecosystem of lending and staking that definitely can generate yield, @Alexander Szikla, which will make it a more attractive investment for long term allocation.

I have seen, and used myself in situations I financed, the following scenario which can sometimes be used to “finance” a particularly attractive property especially where the purchase price is being executed significantly lower than appraised value.  

If you have the seller willing to finance at a low interest rate, you may find it easier to attract an equity partner since the property is already structured to generate solid cash flow.

@Wendy JiangBe honest and say no as mold testing is typically only done when there are visual signs of mold and has never been any signs or complaints.There are many factors outside of mold that can contribute to breathing problems.I would offer that if you wish I can order a hygienist to come to teat for toxic mold - but if it’s found to be negative the costs for the testing would be at your expense.

While inventory can be tight, well-priced properties that are updated or renovated continue to attract buyers quickly.
