The light in the unit was awful, I had a blood-red fake leather couch, and I took horrible photos with my cell phone.

I'm about to put an offer on a MF in Rensselaer and will definitely be needing a handyworker & painter for some light cosmetic work.

Rehab Scope:Cosmetic remodel: Painted the interior/exterior, updated the kitchen cabinets and countertops, and installed new flooring.Modernized fixtures: Replaced light fixtures, outlets, and switches throughout.Enhanced curb appeal: Painted the brick exterior, added landscaping, and modern black accents.Timeline: Completed the rehab in just 4 weeks to minimize holding costs.Strategic Upgrades: Focused on cost-effective improvements like vinyl flooring and fresh paint, wh What was the outcome?

Either one would hopefully "light a fire" under the tenant to get it done.

A single family house with a small HOA can still present a lot of risk, so tread lightly. 

Working with a good loan officer or mortgage broker can help you to get your file set up in a way that presents you in the best light to underwriters.

Job included inside work of leveling floors, installing flooring, paint walls, kitchen cabinets, etc in both units, as well as lay a new driveway, fence the back yard, provide attic fans, and install electric to the crawlspace to add lights and a sump pump.

So they have to tread lightly/smartly in order to get paid! 

For the value add we're going to fix up the roads, add a nice sign and fence, replace mailboxes, add lights and fix some plumbing leaks.

when I first started lending in Detroit in 2002.. the rehabbers there would paint the copper in the basements with grey paint in the low light theives would think its galvanized and not take it.
