It’s very hard to match paint, you’re better off just repainting houses.

.- Kitchen upgrade and vinyl flooring replacement (replacing countertops and backsplash with plumbing and sink/faucet with new appliances, we will repaint the cabinets ourselves)- Bathroom remodeling to include demolition, installation, plumbing repair or modification, and tile flooring (~42sqft per bathroom)- Convert two bedrooms into one with a walk-in-closet- For the flooring: Remove all carpet and refinish hardwood floor- For the painting: patch and repair walls and ceilings and re-paint.- Verify the existing installation for heating and water heater (new heating system on 3rd floor)- Remove asbestos insulation and pipes in the basement- Verify the existing electrical installation and upgrade to support new appliances- Some windows to be changed and we may consider to change them all depending on pricing- Repair the roof if neededWe are also considering doing most of the work on the unit we would live in (other than plumbing and electricity) but we really need to find a GC that can work within our budget!

I would want that if she is going to paint - assume it will need to be re-painted when she moves out.  

Spackle the damaged drywall to make a smooth flat surface, then either add one row of tiles like you mentioned or just repaint with semi gloss and caulk, but tile would be a better permanent fix.

Still looking for a good landscape guy.Another interesting thing I found recently is that many of local Modesto flips are using very cheap materials, some flip only repaint the kitchen cabinet and replace a countertop, without even changing the floor.

Stuff would probably be pretty hard to paint around when you repaint as well -- something to think about.Why not a hardwood like Ash or Oak - stain dark and  put 2-3 coats of poly on the top -- Ash and Oak are both pretty affordable if you get the smaller base.  

The flip-side is if she is in your house for 7 years, you can afford to repaint, carpet, and clean.

The security deposit should not be touched until the tenant moves out & cover items like carpet, cleaning, if property needs to be repainted.

I had just finished repainting the place the week before these girls moved in.

We do plan on repainting the outside of the cabinets but can't decide what to do with the inside.
