Improvements What was the outcome?

I position my inspections as 'planning for future repairs/improvements' which mitigates that whole 'he's here to get my security deposit' mindset.And, I would rather have the tenant with me than to have him later claim that something was broken during the inspection.

Your aim starting out should be to get the best reviews as possible and use guest feedback to make improvements as you go.

They may argue they couldn't pay you because they just made a $10,000 improvement to the house. 

And sometimes, we are not materially improving what you could have done  yourself. 

My strategy would then be to lease at least two of the renovated units, increasing occupancy to 90%, which could improve the chances of securing favorable terms for refinancing.I haven't pitched it to the seller yet.
