I have a nephew fresh out of college two weeks ago and he wants to get his Real Estate License. 

Lesson learned- maybe it is better to start fresh with new tenants depending on their history but it's all good now.

This PM has those fees regardless the price.My properties are at market rates(I did spruce them up with some fresh items-paint/hardware as I increased the tenant's monthly rate this last year :)  Maybe that shows my soft side but it softened the blowAgain, my worry is about possible legislation being put in place because of fees such as these.I am also not hating on PMs  They do provide a valuable service and when I finally do fully retire will be utilizing that service--although the old saying "No one cares for your property as well as you" creeps in my mind.Again, Thank you all for the discussion and making me think..."

Fresh paint, very clean, comfy beds and couch.But there are no decorations. 

@Gregory Schwartz is that wood lap siding on the second story, what I would do is make sure the wood still looks pretty good, replace any rotten boards and repaint with a fresh color.

Hello,I'm fresh out of college and have been trying to get into real estate for the past 4 years while in school.

. $15,000 dollars  I had a freshly remodeled unit!

Physically, the look was changed completely with smooth freshly painted walls, and ceilings.

Hey everyone, fresh real estate investor hatchling here. 

If you lost one commission due to uncovered tattoos, would it be worth it to you?
