@Brian Ellis if its just one burner , just pull it out and buy a new one at home depot .

In addition I’m sure there are plans in the works for composting, recycling, community gardens, and the displaying of various flags and sindry bumper stickers declaring a safe and hate free environment.

It is a pretty far walk to downtown, depot town, Easter Mich. and shopping.

Home Depot receipts, before/after pics.... share everything good about your home, and everything bad about the comps.

Go to Home Depot looking at the materials they use.

I use a knob-mounted box, its $30 at home depot.

Anything else I would buy 4.5mm thick LVT wood plank flooring (about $2.25/sq ft at home depot).

You won’t get the volume pricing on materials new home builders get so factor in Home Depot retail pricing on everything too.A half burned down house will cost more to repair than building a brand new house from scratch.

Such as tax preparers, sandwich shops, etc.... that will really suffer if traffic volume dries up.If this is his thought on this, it comes down to preserving the "Asset Value" of the shopping center through tenant mix.Storage units seem to be low volume traffic draws compared to a Home Depot or something like that.

Paint and countertops and rugs installed by home depot, ect, might very well be within your level to get executed.Then once improved, and set better to cash flow, you can then have a property management company manage it for you.Your next property, you would have that company's vendor resources, they likely would willing refer to you, for more involved projects.I would avoid the companies that will buy you a discounted property, renovate it for you, then they will be your property management company.
