The texture does cover a lot, and has imperfections already.This guy said how hard it would be to match the paint color and he would have to feather the paint out on either side of the repair.I had a crazy idea to try to do this myself, too.

This is pretty much how banks do things too - the idea is that not only do you have to afford your rent - but also your electric, your food, your car, your insurance, your gas, internet, etc.  

I really disliked their interface and the colors.

We removed 4 walks (including load baring), installed 2 walls, added half bath, replaced all plumbing and electrical, added new eye brow porch, painted full exterior (changed color), replaced all flooring, new bathroom and kitchen layout with everything replaced (shower, cabinets/vanity, counter, appliances, etc), stocked with new furniture, added mini split, removed gas/wood fireplace and added a new electrical fireplace, and placed initial STR tenant in 2 months and 1 week.  

All bets are off in some jurisdictions if you refuse to rent based on race, color, etc.

@Mike Most The Great job on building your equity base and how smart you are to be looking to othe markets, I work with out of state/country investors and help them create passive income with midwest rentals and here's a few things to consider:- Competition is everywhere and only growing in any worthwhile area, so instead of looking for places with less of it I'd focus on building the team that can still deliver results. - The time is always NOW, so many people stayed out of the "fight" over the last few years and now with rate hikes they are kicking themselves because they missed out.

The browner the color, the longer it lasts.

I have been conversing with a broker from Citrona homes too. The

He has developed a map of the city and surrounding areas with color codes.

I don't care about someone's color, religion, sexual proclivities, their stance on green energy, political affiliation, etc.I want people that pay rent on time, take care of the property, and communicate when needed.
