Buy mis tint paintBuy clearance items like tile when they go on sale even if you don't need them right awayBuy unfinished wood cabinets and stain them for rentals

Carpets get stained and have to be pulled up every so often.

I'd go with the unfinished oak. 1) You get to pick the stain color and the finish, 2) down the road you can always have them re-sanded and stained to look new 3) much more durable.Engineered flooring looks good but it's not that durable.

A lot of buyers assume they are more upscale, because you typically don't see this finish on cabinets from big box stores.When we paint/stain cabinets, we typically go espresso, like you...

Between the pee stains in the carpet, the ad smells, and the liability of a dog bite, it's just not worth it to me.

If I ditch the carpet I will have wood floors to sand and stain.

It is the cheapest, looks great, easy to install and does not hold smells/stains from tenants.

Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I am looking for someone to powerwash & stain a fence at a SFR I own in Parker.

Maybe throw in a primer/sealer stain killer and repaint of the areas where there are now water stains..

If you have a contractor than can install it and finish it themselves, I think the better since you can work the stain color with the overall color scheme of the house. 2.
