I could probably get more if I listed it on the MLS but the buyer has been interested for the past 4 months and has picked out most of the fixtures, colors, etc.

Try a silver cup on a sidewalk and wear a sign.

Fixtures drain slowly.

Refinishing cabinets, floors, and replacing most electrical fixtures.

Could you honestly assess a bunch of holes in the wall, broken light fixture, and other stuff on the spot?

In a practical world, I am not paying $90/hour to install light fixtures, replace light switches, fix leaking faucets etc.

I took a break from investing and education during the World Cup as I'm an avid football (we call it football, not soccer :P) fan. 

If for some reason that is not agreeable with your tenants, then you are stuck relying on shelf liner.A few other options are: 1) let the process take its course and know that you will have issues to deal with in a few years, although these are relatively durable products assuming proper use and damage control 2) try to water proof them with a fast drying brush on lacquer product or an aerosol product (several thin coats)....never done it but don't see why it couldn't work or 3) after step 1 is complete and it has been a few years, you can sand down the bubbled up cabinet bottoms where wet plates and cups were set and put new 1/4' hardi-board????

So, we did ALL the cosmetic work inside and out, HWF on first floor all sanded and refinfished and all new NICE carpet in the rest of the house, everything painted inside and out, all new light fixtures because former owners took every one but left the 2 drawer fancy dishwasher that no longer worked at all and the expensive brand drop in range that still worked I think, but was so unbelievably beat up and totally caked and coated with grease that we just scrapped it and replaced it with a new one!

Jean is right, you need a little landscaping, new light fixture and maybe a screen door.
