Spoke to a HVAC contractor saying about 7k for HVAC work and 1K for electrician work total 8k but overall may improve tenant experience and maintenance charges to me but bit more price to put upfront

There' s a buyer who will credit me the value of the lots towards a finished and tenanted property in their inventory.

Another thing to do is to take that extra cash flow and put it into cap ex that improves the value of the property.
