Then in the next rent cycle 1 tenant moved out and the new replacement paid the old rent sans the $50 discount, and in the second year the other tenant's rent was raised $50, so we were back to the original rent. 

Replaced all the windows in the building, insulated the attic and redid the front stoop and cellar doors.

Maybe find a vacation rental that can have personal value for me and my family as well.But more so the attraction to selling would be to pay off higher interest debt (and thereby replace some of that warehouse income).

On 1 townhome in MN I spent $17,000 for one reroof, $7500 for a new drive way, and $10,000 for a deck replacement.

I have since done the demo work to remove the paneling and replace / add insulation and the new electric work is now hanging in place in "old work" electrical boxes.

How many kitchens have you replaced?  

We are now at the point where we replace 3 driveways every year, starting with the worst ones. 

@Christina Galdieri You can absolutely 1031 exchange into multiple replacement properties.

It’s still rough and has plenty of room for improvement, but I can upload photos of a distressed property, tax records, comps, lender rates, and local rehab costs.From there, it analyzes the photos to identify repairs, explains why they’re needed, estimates costs for each item, calculates the total rehab budget, determines ARV based on comps, and provides an expected return—basically automating a lot of what spreadsheets already do.It’s not meant to replace an analyst, and of course, everything still needs to be verified.

And how much money are you making in your current job that you would want to replace with your real estate income?
