Paint, minor repairs and necessary maintenance only.

Doing a full-blown rehab is one thing, doing a quick cosmetic turnover (replace carpet and paint) is another.   

It's not rent ready, at min it's going to need probably appliances, paint, and flooring.

Work is pretty basic, mostly wall repair and paint, some hardwood refinishing, installation of new toilet, and vanity, refinishing of a tub and removal of vines from the stucco on the outside of the home.

But I agree fix the issues at hand, do some cosmetic upgrades (paint floor lighting kitchen and bath) and should be able to sell it for a profit

This was a personal project where I did majority of the work myself (hung all drywall...140 sheets, gutted it, painted it, you name it) I brought my crew in to put on the finishing touches.

It's one thing to paint a house, it's another to paint a house while having to stop your car from being jacked and watching your supplies get stolen. 

If comps vary due to condition rank the condition of the ones that are livable. is it very dated,  needs fresh paint and carpets or is it fully renovated.

I'm empathetic to you people trying to run an ethical business to provide for your families and have to constantly be painted as the "greedy landlord" for trying to make a living.
