You can rent a machine from Home Depot and rip it up that way, going to be most efficient.  

I'm also looking right in the centre of the city where the units are quite small so there is less area that could potentially require capex.Another nuance is that in Australia, washing machine, dryer and fridge are something that the tenant handles, so nothing would go towards this for capex.

I also track each property as a fixed asset, including amounts paid, closing costs, depreciation, etc so it gives a TRUE picture of a property's performance as an appreciating asset AND a cash-flow machine. 

Make sure that the deposit and the payments over 12 months will cover the costs of having the whole unit cleaned, possibly running an ozone machine, and having the unit painted. 3.

Sounds like you have a very well-oiled machine. 

We just had our first bout of repairs (washing machine not draining and leaky toilet) 3 months in.

Property is a rental machine with yearly projections of $75k.

I have roughly $80k-$100K in equity and would like to scale into another market but because CO is such an appreciation state I'd rather not sell a potential equity building machine before really allowing the equity build up to happen.4) Lastly, I am thinking of changing my mortgage into a Heloc and being able to utilize the equity that way.

-Look into a cleaner who knows how to use an ozone machine for the smell.

I'm going to pull the trigger on your Item B and keep the marketing machine rolling.
