But as for the appraisal report... our future tenants didn't help much with their decor...one tenant is a hoarder and the other decorated their unit in "horror" motif...

My point is that even with steady occupancy, getting $50K per year is not typical outside of a super touristy area with tons of amenities, and an entire place property that is immaculately decorated.

For a rental you can use any neutral colors here are some that I recommend by BEHR The Home Decorators Collection Basic KhakiCotton GreySoft pebbleSmoked TanAnd for your trim you could use Glacier valley i hope this helps

(Maybe that's why they don't mind the 60's décor?)   

The Tenants agree not to permit any deterioration or destruction to occur while they are occupying the property. 19.ALTERATIONS:Tenant shall make no alterations, decorations, additions, or improvements in or to the premises without Landlords’ prior written consent, and then only by contractors or mechanics, or other approved by Landlord.

Out of high school my goal was to become an architect and interior designer/decorator, but when I finished my associates degree, the solar industry fell into my lap and I ended up becoming a Project Manager for a solar installation company over the next 7 years.

Does anyone have any tips about who in the Philly region will buy:Old appliancesVintage furnitureVintage toolsVintage decorative itemsVintage TV, etc Best would be a company that comes in and gives a price to take everything.

The one existing house needs a cosmetic rehab as it currently has a late 70's decor, but I believe it is well-maintained.The estimated numbers look something like this:Property acquisition:  $700kConstruction cost:  $750k ($350k for each new house, plus $50k cosmetic rehab on the existing house)Sales price:  $1.8M ($600k per house)So the profit would be $350k.  

@Sam Shueh I drove to Jacksonville to Floor and Decor and it was worth it since Lowes and other stores in my area didn't have anything in the price point I wanted.

However, for what ever reason, the lower tenant (according to the upper tenant) has been mean, rude, saying things like the backyard is only for the lower unit, they had a door decorating "competition" for Halloween which turned into the lower tenant yelling at the upper tenant.
