With 2021 behind us, it’s time to think about fresh starts, whether that means small changes or a complete life overhaul.

It is embedded in our minds that starting construction on a fresh plot and erecting a new property will be a costly option.

Hey Luka, and yes indeed I do, but a good a magician never reveals his tricks!

That usually means redoing the kitchen and bathrooms, fresh paint, and new flooring.

If so, can they handle an increase or should you terminate their lease and start fresh with tenants you've selected?

@Michael SheaDepending on how close you are to the ocean, you can probably get away with those whole house fans where it sucks fresh air from open windows.

Is a fresh, nice, house treated better by tenants *generally* than one that's just left in dated/worn condition? 

Empty the property, clean it up, start fresh with a competent property manager that handles these issues so you don't have to.Remember: cheaper doesn't mean you'll make more money.You can start by going to www.narpm.org to search their directory of managers.

Also the good thing is that your tenants are month to month and if it don’t work out you can tell them that you will not renew there leases and you can start fresh with your new lease agreements with new tenants.

Get it in writing while it's still fresh in your mind.
