- Vinyl Plank flooring (instead of carpet which would need to be replaced or cleaned, making vacacany longer)- Curtain rods (instead of blinds that will probably get wrecked, tenants can supply their own curtains)- LED lights (so that we reduce mainteniance costs, since LEDs generally last 10+ years)- Simple Yard / Grass (for quick mowing)- New / Newish Appliances (to replace the aging 26 year old ones that came with the house)- Simple paint scheme for touching up paint (Grey walls and White trim is working great so far)- Door knob stoppers (The circular ones the doorknobs hit so they don't hit the wall, or baseboard ones)- Getting high quality contractors for major home systems (HVAC, water heater, etc) for a high quality install- Forget the waterline to fridge or icemakers- Plastic piece (similar to plywood) on kitchen and bathroom sink cabinet floor to keep from from rotting from leaksWhat ideas can you add to my list?
