Notice the fancy red-white-blue spray painted garage windows!

Light spray of vinegar on cabinets might also prevent mildew.

You can't spray an entire unit, and then try to touch up with a brush. 2 entirely different textures - the paint is likely matching, but you see different textures and the light reflects differently.

Figure out how get a reliable PM; if you can't do that then I'd skip OOS and bury your money in jars in the desert or something.

Just figure that' true everywhere.Property taxes insurance and maintenance (bug spray/termite bond/yards/cleaning/painting) take just about all of the profit.

Hi Emily,Given the gravity of the situation (virus issues),Maybe offer them $250 cash in $20 dollar bills, and a 2 cases of beer (to hang out in the backyard) while your appraiser is there, along with some spray Lysol disinfectant to use once they get back in.If they turn that down, you are up against a tough wall.Good Luck!

Then she will spray in down with oil to make it easy to pull out on the next pour.

But hard to charge much for one extra coat of spot painting with BIN Shellac primer or the spray can.

So places you'll find them or they'll hide out - wood furniture, bed headboards, under the mattress, they'll crawl to the ceiling/corner of the wall and lay eggs (look for black specks) - if you see things like that you'll need to scrape and paint - there are treatments you can do to spray the baseboards, furniture etc - local pest control companies should be able to treat - I've also heard the only way to fully get rid of them is with a heat treatment as well as everything else I mentioned.Your tenants would need to wash all beddings, strip all furniture down, spray/treat the furniture, spray baseboards, etc etc - pretty labor intensive to do it right.

But all tenants were and are long term renters.With one, the neighborhood changed (worsened) and he no longer wanted to rent there.One lost her job and ended up having to downsize.One was dis-satisfied with the pest control I provided (I really did try to work with her on it but spraying every single month was simply not an option.)
