I didn't take a video walkthrough since there were tenants with us but it was a decent space that wouldn't need a ton of work, but definitely some cosmetic and aesthetic rehabbing.I believe Michelle asked a question about purchase with tenants - Sean answer this one.We also discussed why it's important for us to be investing in this area, though sometimes dangerous since we go as a group it's less of a threat for us.  

I don't want to have an ugly house due to me lacking the skills to envision an aesthetic house.

In our case, because the property was in a zone where the Board had adopted a certain aesthetic, the planning commission required a tile roof.

If I put up the money ,took on the risk ,and the dId the hard labor of renting a property you better believe if there’s any rent coming in it’s going into my pocket not some punk kid sleeping on a couch in my rental

I'm looking at a duplex in a large college town and want to get some advice before moving forward with an offer.The Details:-Duplex, both 4 bed/4 bath-Listed for $250,000-Currently 100% occupied, $300/room-Cash flowing $2,400/month-1 mile from campus-6/10 condition, 2/10 aesthetics I think that with new flooring, paint, and updating the kitchens and bathrooms, I could increase the rent to $550-600/room. 

Existing kitchen aesthetics were very dark and stale since 1985, same with the lighting fixtures throughout the unit.

Of course, they are a mess to replace both financially and aesthetically, but have been worth it for me to do when the boiler died 

If its a A-B class neighborhood, I would place the most aesthetically pleasing of finishes there is because your clientele will expect that.

Also their plans seem to fit will with the aesthetic and mountain cabin feel I was going for. 

You were being punked for the brain damage of dealing with the building department after you made them mad.
