I love that pic and think the shelves over the windows look cute!

We went over there and I saw a gorgeous white building, surrounded by acres and acres of tropical laden grounds with pools, tennis courts, and recreation areas.

I was in Peru back in March when landslides happened all over Lima and literally every water and soda bottle on the shelves sold out and while Peru is just a small market of KO's overall market, the fact was they literally couldn't keep any water bottle or soda bottle on the shelves because people were scared and when people get scared they buy up everything.

The listings at 270k and under fly off the shelves but when you start hitting 300k and higher maybe only 15 to 20% of those are selling and the rest are sitting.

Plant shelves,nooks, ceiling treatments, and foam pop outs will definitely improve the interior appearance of your home and cost you very little.

Ok for those of you who have read my posts I am a rookie land lordand I put some pretty fancy doo dads in my rentals they are c rentals neighborhoods that are a little sketchy There are bars on all the windows I think I am using that rating correctly.but I have a hypothesis which is born from an experience while living in new york during the 80'smore on that laterI put the big pull faucets with the pull out sprayer i opted for bead board back splashes because they were cheaper I almost went with glass but ran out of moneyI did floating vanities in the bathroom with water fall faucetsand I put down laminate floors and I even did an accent wall the prospective tenants liked it all but what froze them in their tracks was the shower heada relatively inexpensive square glass rain shower headwith the delta armhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003064FXY/that froze them dead they were so anxious to get the apartment the husband started jumping around and ran and picked up an empty krispy kreme box from the living room and wrote their email adresss on itthere is no doubt that the other renos made an impact but this shower head for the money is going to go in all my rentalsthe pure allure of it for what it costs pays huge dividendsnow on to my hypothesisWhile growing up in New york I noticed that in the middle of some of the worse neighborhoods were people who had apartments with the african art the smell of sandle wood or some exotic insence paintings on the wall and book shelves and some nice potterythere were bars on the windows and under the smooth jazz music you can hear the sounds of city life outside these folks had created an oasis within their apartmentsI believe that you can find these sorts of people simply by understanding who they are which doesent take much just start talking about life and things goals and aspirations principles of living and dichotomies and the truly intelligent grounded caring folks will emerge in your mind.people who may come from the ghetto but are somewhat elevated from that existencewhether through education or a realization that it goes no where a been there done that mentality and a desire for more from their lives.artists, educators, construction workers, part time poets full time city workerswhatever.

He plans to shelve the plans, then restart the project when the market returns.

Things like: a new bedroom door, new kitchen cabinets, fixing closet shelves, etc.5. 

Thermostats, towel bars and other bath accessories, doorbells, mailboxes, house numbers, pull chains, closet shelving, garbage disposals, light bulbs, final cleaning, and all of the other little details can all start to add up on you if you don't plan for them. 

If it is in the basement (which all of mine are), I want it to be painted white, floor tiled, with a nice sink and a cabinet or two, with a counter top and some shelves.
