When you go to sell the property, if you produce a certificate of inspection for the wrong number of units, buyer unless you are giving them a great deal and they will throw caution into the wind, would insist on the correct designations.

You are just throwing money away and will eventually fall victim to squatters.

That's the throwing you know what against the wall, and hop0e plan. 

You can do this simply by changing your bedding colors and the colors of accent items like throw pillows and towels. 

If you want to talk to a good agent out in that area I would reach out to Jen Day @Jen DayI would also check facebook marketplace in case someone is looking to sell and just throwing it up to see if they get any traction. 

Instead of throwing your deal out to a bunch of strangers on the internet, I recommend you do your research to find a local expert with 20+ ACTIVE years in real estate in your market.

If so, feel free to throw it on here and we can pick it apart.Pay attention to days on market and ARVs in the immediate area / neighborhood.

Whereas curtains you can easily throw in the washing machine.

Renovate it, put a new tenant in there and then if you still aren't feeling it throw it on the market and see if anyone bites. 

One other market-wide factor I’d throw in is local government policies.
