Keep pushing through, as appraisers sometimes need extra help to understand the full value of a well-done renovation.

If you make $500 more a month but have to put 10 hours extra each month into the property will it be worth it to you?

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

I rent homes unfinished for the most part but sometimes, if a space would look better with something extra, like a coffee bar or a patio table, I will pick one up.

But, if you pay utilities, it might make sense to add a bit for the extra water / electricity.Personally, I would use this as an opportunity to tear up that 3 year lease. 

What else could you do with that extra $150,000?

If this is a longer term hold and you don't need the extra $500 per month and you'd be fine with a $200 per month increase, go for that.

Would be an extra step to bill you fees otherwise.

He's on SSDI (Social Security Disability Income) at just under $1,500 a month and he wants to do some wholesales to make some extra income.Lets say he does a deal or multiple deals and makes any assignment fee on it/them and the profit exceeds 1.5k which is higher than his disability per month.

Good luck and enjoy the extra $$$s.
