With great upside potential with how I visualized the space after repairs.

An attractive property visually and financially4.

A great reminder on the power of visualization and being specific with those goals.

How bad does the basement flood, and when (ask the renters).Plus the example you provided has paint peeling off, splitting dry wood, and siding in need of repairs.And is that a paint color you want to rent.It looks like it might be a "Matchy Matchy" block with similar roof line houses.Look at the home to the right of it, soft colors with a white trim, looks much more "CLEAN" to me like it would draw a better renter, and a few dollars more a month.If it's a "matchy matchy" look for the most visually appealing home that matches and base new color choices on that.Dose the rest of the neighborhood have "Jail doors" on the front?

For those that need visuals. 

I'm a 20 year veteran in commercial printing and visual communications, however I'm looking for the financial freedom and building wealth.  

It’s a visually distressed house that will need a good amount of work but there’s potential for an ADU in the lower level and he owns the rental next door, so I’m hoping we might be able to wrap that into the deal too or eventually buy it, too. 

Visualize pictures of the local lakes and waterfalls hung in your property. 

Apart from opening the door to an electrical panel and opening cabinet doors, the home inspection is purely visual.

The quality and amenities are not there...except may in just the visuals.
