Is the market segment they service growing or static or shrinking.

Brush up on energy codes especially. 

If you are going to paint, I would suggest having the doors and boxes sprayed {if possible} rather than trying to paint them with a brush and/or {foam} roller.

You can attach the head unit directly to the brush and it works great on one of our couches that seems to collect hair like crazy.

This works OK for relatively static and simple investments like a private placement or crowdfund, but can become rather cumbersome and expensive with a more time sensitive and transaction intensive asset such as a rental property.

As you do your research, you will find that there is a range of business models, quality of customer service and fees, and that expertise is far more important that location in selecting a provider.If your investments will be someone one time and static in nature, like buying shares of a private placement, then the services of a trust company serving as custodian will be fine.  

You're not crazy, the Chapman Index thinks its closer to 9% based on a more static bundle of goods.What type of tenant?

Repainted the entire house ourselves, enclosed one room with French doors to make a 5th BR or office, changed all the ceiling fans, door knobs to brushed nickel, added an above stove microwave.

Clean that out and any brush. 

Then for the shower grout, I bought Rejuvenate grout cleaning spray and a grout brush at HD; worked wonders.
