Plenty of upgrades over the years What was the outcome?

my wife just sold a property for one of our new construction buyers.this client also got talked into buying the property without a home inspection.so she had to put a new roof on it new Hvac upgrade electrical panel and a plumbing issue.the agent that sold it to her is known to us and he is a slime ball no question.bottom line your the client you dictate what you are going to do or not do never let the agent tell you what to do.. 

There was a sales pitch to upgraded to PIG membership, of course, but there was no pressure or urgency in that pitch. 

If it's in decent shape, I would do a couple upgrades to appeal to potential homeowners (adding window shutters or bark mulch outside, an accent wall, nicer light fixture in living room, etc. etc.)

Not to say people can't upgrade, but my first thought was, my roofer is pitching syndication deals and to top off his bad luck the bellman at a hotel I was checking in also hit me up the same month when he found out I was an investor. 

You'll need to think about things like vacancy rates, property management fees, maintenance costs, property taxes, insurance, and any repairs or upgrades that might be needed.

I ended up getting a free rental upgrade once everything was worked out.

The house is quite old, needs all systems to be upgraded, and has an strange shotgun 2 bedroom setup.

I have had to advise customers that the small addition to their house , when pulling a permit will trigger the inspector to make them add fire sprinklers to the whole house , hard wired smoke alarms , upgraded electrical panel , plant 15 trees .
