It also has a small front room (sort of a combination living room and kitchen), and a couple of people commented that it wouldn't work for them because they have a lot of dining room furniture.I had the exterior of the house repainted, the doorbell replaced and the front stoop retiled (some of the tiles were broken).

I should add that part of the townhome "features" is that they rip out all carpeting and repaint the walls prior to new tenants.

A note: you will need to scrub the Vapo Rub off the house when you want to repaint the house.

I painted every room and closet, and re-painted all the trim and doors (I used the 5 gals. of dutch boy antique white throughout).

I offered him 140k with him repainting all of the outside on both buildings (we told him what color).

Generally I am ok with paint, but I make it clear that if it is an unusual color scheme they may have to repaint before move out.Regardless of when they bring in pets, I let them know a damage deposit is required.

sorry to hear..you think if you repaint, they'll just repaint the graffitti??...

Repaint everything, use some contrasting colors on accent walls and trim.

That's really no different than repainting your house or putting in a new kitchen.

I met with the seller a few days ago, and he has agreed to clean up the house, repaint areas of the house, clean the bathroom and get into tip top shape.
