Plates purchased with coupons at a grocery store, State Farm coffee mugs, engraved advertising knives.......just may not set an impressive table.

@Chris Seveney  I was going to suggest notes as well... but it looks like the OP does not understand them and is like many other invesetors that don't understand how banks work.and only understands the basic buy a rental put a tenant in it and love it..both work and can work... most of my clients that buy notes tire of being landlords for X amount of years and just want to clip coupons.

If the cabinets are not in great shape, it doesn't cost that much to replace them with new (check out HD or Lowes and grab a 20% off coupon), and it will pay off in the end when your kitchen sparkles.Same goes with baths. 

And for $30 per month, we got some nice coupons to cut and send with our payment.

Looks like institutional money is moving into real estate investor territory:[http://myrentalportfolio.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Morgan-Stanley-SF-Report-Oct-2011.pdf]This scares me!

I'm debating between: HD Lifeproof flooring - 7mm product thickness with a 6 mil wear layer  $3.20 list price, I'll get it quoted, probably can get $2.60/2.80 per sq ftNational Builders Choice - 4.5mm product thickness with 12 mil wear layer   $2.60/ sq ft from local flooring companyhttps://my-nfp.com/wp-content/...Does the 7mm vs 4.5mm dampen much more noise? 

For our entire MLS, sellers are getting 95%+ of their asking price... same as in 2015 and 2016.http://www.charlestonrealtors.com/wp-content/uploa...For Historic Downtown Charleston they are actually getting a little more so far in 2017 than in 2016.
