80% of my equity is probably around $110,000.Also, I have been considering getting the exterior of the home painted as there is tons of chipped paint, etc.

Slight rehab to units and painted exterior What was the outcome?

Hello all, my tenant is vacating after about 8 years and I wanted to take this as an opportunity to upgrade the property (~$10k) and fix stuff (new exterior and interior paint, stainless steel dishwasher, etc.).

I would need to redo flooring throughout and paint the interior and exterior, install new vanities, lights, new kitchen, the list goes on.
