I regutted almost the whole place, new kitchen, restained floors, repainted the whole place - modernizied it.

There is no way I was willing to pay $6,000 to clean a house, lease the house for a year for $1600 to $1900 per month and then have to re-paint and carpet the house one year later for a cost of $6,000.

Perhaps look into getting some used cabinets someone doesn't want anymore and repaint/refinish them? 

Hi there.A tenant wants to re-paint the basement of the townhouse to the same neutral color, and use it as an office (I am assuming to meet clients).

Between the two I converted the back half of the attached 4 car garage to a livable rec room/addition (approx 500 sq/ft) and had the exterior of the house re-painted/landscaped.

BP ComradesJust bought a duplex at auction for 100,000. Both tenants have been living there 2 years. We got them to sign new leases. Gross rent 1850/mTaxes 400/mInsurance 125/mUtilities 100/mMortgage 550/mMisc. ...

I once had an exterior metal door that I swore I'd have to repaint. 

That often requires repainting all of the cabinets.

Repainting everything 4-5k plus paint.
