Usually for these sellers it means nothing and that they did the cheapest crap possible with some carpet replacement, paint, and new knobs and maybe some fixtures if your lucky.I could care less about such items.

You want tenants screened and ready to occupy the property as soon as the paint dries.Try to segregate Rehab Expenses to as small amounts as possible

(not likely under the circumstances you've painted) Not sure what anyone can do for you at this point, but certain individuals here may be able to help you find the money to renovate properly @Ann Bellamy ?

Are you prepared to take him/her to the tile store, paint store, carpet store, countertops warehouse, plumbing fixture store, etc.? 

I made learning about all that a priority and often come up with my best and most creative solutions after doing a mundane task like painting a wall. 

We own a painting contracting company (39 years) in Florida and 18 years in Inverness fl and I want to expand my resources into other areas such as flipping.

If you do have the funds, and want to do some of the work like installing flooring, painting, etc. yourself, I would skip the renovation loan and additional requirements that come with it and keep things simple.If you don't have access to additional funds and don't have the ability or desire to work on the property yourself, and the property won't qualify for regular financing without some of the repairs, then I would definitely recommend the 203(k) loan.
