:(Are there NOI improvements you can make, eliminate expenses, improve turn over (lower it), reduce damage etc etc. 

The fence  is damaged. 

The repairs you can get your own tradesmen have them send a pic of the damage and repair.

There are pros and cons in my opinion:Pros of many cheaper house:1. easier to buy2. higher rent to priceCons of many cheaper houses:1. less reliable tenant (damaging houses/less reliable income stream).

@Nick HedbergI target fire damaged properties. 

You can buy affordable, rent it, break a little more than even, pray you get good tenants that stay a decade and then see how much the value of the property rose, then you can dress it up and sell it for a profit.

The scope of work includes new kitchens, new baths, flooring, paint, and repairing water damage/burst pipes. 

Thinking that we were not going to be able to match them up well enough ourselves (due to weathering), I planned on painting the roof.Back fence was damaged pretty good.

We also had an all-inclusive pet addendum in the lease that outlined policies regarding pet waste, barking/noise, pet damage to the unit, etc.
