I use FIRST TILE on Broad street here in Chattanooga.

We tiled the whole house in case it floods again, and installed a extra half bathroom. 

Clean floors tile or laminate is always best but if you have carpet make sure there are no stains and smells fresh.Landscaping and curb appeal raise rent to include servicesIt is difficult to rent a dated or unkept property when your competition is a much better choice.When I take on a new property to manage I front the cost for the owner taking it out of the first months rent so the owner is not out upfront money, as well the owner knows I will make it a priority to rent it quick as now I have cost to recoup.

So, if there used to be water in the basement, but you had the drain tiles replaced, you do not have to disclosure it.  

Tile buckling, counter tops with gaps, buckets full of water from unknown leaks, home made plumbing, etc.

In my opinion, and experience, people overestimate the value of granite, nice tiles, etc in terms of what the house is worth.

THe best idea for a rental property is to buy one thats a REO or dump, build it up to your specifications TILE EVERYTHING, and idiot proof the house versus buying something turn key. 

Mold on the bathroom tile. 

I rubbed some on a hidden tile and it seemed to tint it very well, I think if I went with an ebony color it might do just the trick, then I could go over it with rejuvenate or some other basic floor coating every few months to help seal it in.Thoughts or suggestions?

I have all daughters and my oldest is 9, she knows how to do baseboards, trim, tile, and use power tools.
