(Otherwise known is curb appeal to a prospected buyer). 

We humans are predatory by nature, laws and social demands curb that side of us for our own good as well as others.

You could hire a consultant for this one job, and after this flip you will be able to do these rehabs yourself.The truth is revealed by getting three bids for each subtrade.With a rehab, it's all about curb appeal and location.

Nice rehab, curb appeal by planting grass on the small front yard, perennial ryes and fescues in virginia , we use plastic shutters here, cheap but effective.  3/1 it is what it is.

I am also looking for advice about how can I improve a curb appeal and facade of the building?

@Wayne BrooksIn Utah, most cities have a strip of land between the curb and sidewalk called a park strip that is municipally owned.  

Replacing that entire pool would cost way more than $40k, otherwise they would have considered that option - however the problem your dealing with can be curbed by resurfacing if they say it can.

Four things I can tell you is educate yourself, network, kick fear to the curb and like Nike says "just do it"!!

HeheYou could always go garbage diving the day the trash is out on the curb for clues!

You serve the eviction, his trash goes to the curb.
