The apt does not have its own entrance from the exterior; it must be accessed from the interior of the home via a basement door and stairs off of the living / kitchen area.* The main home is 2900 sq ft (3 bed/ 2.5 bath) and has 2-floors.

Purchase price: $112,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Sale price: $215,000 Seller financing on a full interior gut and repair What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Still haven't scheduled a walk of the interior of the property. 

Also, I’m responsible for maintaining what is inside the interior walls.

With a hot market like LA, I would suggest making several offers and make it contingent upon interior inspection.2.

Hello,I purchased a duplex in Austin, TX that needs some interior work done (flooring, kitchen, bathroom, some sheetrock, and interior painting, at minimum).

That coating, which doesn’t cost much more, protects the interiors material from sun damage, lowers the amount of heat from the sun on the inside, and allows visible light to still shine through.

I am looking for recommendations for a painter (interior) & handyman in the Kissimmee/St.

If there are, then I would address them..if this is a real concern for the health of your property, then fix the real issue...drainage, foundation...... damaging the interior due to mud/dirt etc....then fix it....if its 99% cosmetic, then hell noOtherwise the tenant can go pound sand......they rented it "as is" with full disclosure and acceptance of the property...Don't like it?.....

Plus, if we want to sell a property we can make our own awesome home tour videos with stabilized camera interior shots and exterior drone video shots.I applaud you for starting the RE investing journey at your age.
