I'm in the market rate range - house was built in 2005 so it's good condition, but I don't have upgraded granite countertops,  white cabinets or new LVP flooring.  

I would also leave the cabinets and counters as they are unless is a higher rent area, then you could go with quartz countertops and paint the cabinets to maximize your rent.

Wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a trusted carpenter/handyman/contractor who can install wood butcher block countertops?

I would also recommend going light with your countertops.

Replaced doors, updated some of the light fixtures, refurbished the kitchen cabinets and countertops.

For example I had my GC purchase paint, countertops, and flooring using his connections who worked at those locations to get a discount.

Full new paint, new flooring (vinyl plank vs carpet), new cabinets, countertops, fixtures, sinks, tubs, lighting, basic rental grade appliances, etc.

The main house is completed and as far as labor, I spent $40,000 on just labor and that includes everything from full gut demo to finishes.We are talking about a 4BD, 3BTH two story 2400 ft.² home with a bonus room.This was a full gut job, replaced…12 Windows (new construction)2 sliding doorsTook out all carpet throughout.Took out this ugly 2” thick tile from half of the downstairs portion.Removed popcorn throughout the entire houseTook one wall downA little framing workReplaced entry door 80” x 92”Drywall patchingSmooth drywall work50 recessed lightingAll electrical neededAll plumbing neededNew cement walkway instead of one walk to the front door I created two steps with two lights in each step.Install kitchen cabinets, excluding countertopInstall all three vanities3 bathtubs with one being a modern standalone tub in the masterAll tile work (bathroom wall & floor, kitchen backsplash)Installing of all hardware, faucets, showerheads, etcInstalled 8 single panel doors with hardwareAdding self-leveler after tearing out that thick tileNew LVP flooring throughout the entire house except bathrooms,all baseboards, trimsPainting the entire house, painting all the doors, painting the outside trim.Reframing the outside balconyReframing the fireplace to install new linear modern electrical fireplaceand they took care of the two trash bins.I mean, completely redone.The only thing that was not included in the $40,000 is landscaping, counter top cut and install and of course the ADU which I’m currently working on now.So my question for my fellow investors and contractors did I pay too much?

Maybe the receipt for the countertops got mixed in with the rental property receipts and the countertops got deducted.

Painted the kitchen cabinets, then added quartz countertops.
