White subway tile is one of the cheapest tiles you can buy, but to make it look high-end, try installing it in a unique pattern like vertical stacked or basket weave!

About 3 year ago had 1st floor washroom redone everything brand new recently have noticed in the garden washroom water stains ask about any water issue was tolled no so I went to look over the washroom theres crack grout between the tub and tile where water must of been sipping threw also water damage on the vanity doors and towel rack missing was tolled not installed correctly contact my handyman looked over the damages forward the price tenants says it's not there fault I was tolled to installed splash guards help prevent from water falling out the tub but since it was not  installed from the beginning it's not tenants fault they don't want to take responsibility 

My aging parents own a single family 3br 2ba rental property in Garden Grove, CA.

They are making some changes in this corridor. I'd keep an eye on ancillary properties that become available. 

I think the only two issues that I think about as I contemplate signing on are the speed with which they have been growing, and the fact that they are just now moving to being vertically integrated -- their property management and renovation teams are all in-house now -- not 3rd party like they used to be.

@Bien Nguyen I'd be happy to discuss options with you in the Murrells Inlet (Garden City Beach) area. 

If this is for watering your garden after guests pop it...

Have you run the numbers on the cost of the land (and the cost of any demo of an existing property) and vertical construction costs versus the cost of acquisition/rehab of an existing property? 

In CA, construction costs are high, but I think outside of the state, you could hopefully get somewhere in the $150-$250/sq ft range for the vertical.
