In reality I’m just trying to keep this lumbering giant moving forward and trying to keep it from crushing me.

Get the current owner to put a lease in place and give you a copy before you close.Otherwise you might get stuck returning a giant deposit you don't know about...or the tenant conveniently finds the lease that is now for 2 years at a super low rate.No lease does not interest me at all.

Think of it like a giant boulder at the top of a hill.

We started with some fresh paint, and I installed remote controlled blinds on the giant window on the front, which faces West and gets really bright in the evening.

And their fragile little vanity needs to be bolstered every day by fashionable clothes, a late-model luxury car, a giant pretense that they're living a wonderful aspirational life.As a landlord, I don't have to put up with doing any of this crap myself.

If 123 Banana St is the only house with a giant unicorn statue on the roof, it's totally plausible to me that the value could be there, but not in a way that appraisers can see/document.

So I am a renter at a property that’s being renovated, in my bedroom one wall was knocked down, and I had to move all my things to one side of the room, they placed a temporary wall over the giant hole, they didn’t place insulation, so it gets really hot in the day and very cold during the night.

Don't cast a giant net and waste time.

The scenery will likely be much less impressive during the winter and spring (out here our sunflower fields are just a giant expanse of dirt then, LOL!)
