From some articles I have read though it sounds like exterior upgrades tend to have pretty good ROI, replacing the front door with a nice new steel one in a color that works well with the house, and new siding (or stucco or brick treatment) can be quite a good improvement in the look, that usually has pretty good ROI.

Really like the colors.

Reglazing works wonders with a 1950s 1960 colors like pink, green, blue tubs. 

My next e-book will be "1000 other uses for duct tape."  

@Nick NoonOur perception is always colored so heavily by where we live. 

Due to the age of the system (16 years outdoor unit) (11years air handler) and the current EPA phase out of the old r22 refrigerant I recommend the heat pump system be replaced.”Neither company is willing to replace any parts on the unit due to the age and not being able to warranty them.Here is the scope of work for the price of $3750Install one new indoor air Handler with 10kw heat strips,Transition duct work to fit the new air handler,Install outdoor heat pump,Connect all high and low voltage wiring to indoor and outdoor units also to the thermostat,Install in-line PVC P-trapClear PVC drain line,Evacuate system and charge with refrigerant,Check/test system.Install Honewell digital programmable heat pump thermostatComplete system install will come with a 10 year all parts and labor warranty.What do you experts think?

However, I'm looking for 10+ years for a reason.  1) The first few years post Bubble anyone could buy low end properties almost anywhere, and 2) Repairs, vacancies and capex don't really show their true (costly) colors until year 10+.How far away are you from the properties and who is doing the management?

Old concrete can be power washed and a coloring stain can be put on it.

I asked for specifications book but the developer said they will leave it up to us as long as it complies with the plans, they have some specifics there but not too specific (ie they said dunn edwards paint but not to what color, not even if it is smooth finish or orange peel, that doesnt bother me much).
