Makes touch up easy between tenants.

Power wash it then decide if it's sound enough to just spray with a good coat of exterior paint, easy spray paint job top to bottom inside & out. .. touch up trim with a accent different color.. it's cute. 

However, there will still be some charges incurred by landlord such as carpet cleaning, touchup painting, etc that is goes over that cleaning fee.  

You can buy a kit to do it yourself at a hardware store for about $15, or most stores have a service where they'll do it for a fee.If it's just a little touch up paint and you have the paint, I'd just do it.

I don't like to do touch up jobs.

Maybe you'll get by with paint touch ups.  

In my market, people don't really care about a modern bathroom (rather low rents).I typically only touch-up bathrooms (paint, new fixtures or toilet if needed - and by needed I mean if the fixture or toilet is wasting water). 

But I have learned that I need to buy something with a small bit of touchup work in order to help get a better deal. 

Drive, Porch, Tub and Surround, touch up paint, Deck Maintenance What was the outcome?

If they left, consider that there could be about a month of turnover vacancy ($900 in lost rent) plus turnover costs (such as touch-ups, or other repaits), vs a rental income loss of $50/mo*12 months= $600.Can't hurt to let them know you will be raising the rent, then if they balk or say they will leave, you could negotiate in the middle.
