However, while I've learned a lot, and definitely improved my finances on paper...It has done very little to my wallet. 

For a 16ft (4 - 30", 1 36"sink,1- 24" DW,  1 30" microwave cabinet. 2 - 18", 1 30" for island (10 total boxes @$400 each installed)) of counters/cabinets, I'd expect a $6500 cabinet and counter budget which includes sink and hardware.    24sf of cabinet counter + 12sf x $40/sf budget placeholder is $1440.  

Whether they are active realtors or active investors that depends on how flat or fat their wallet is.

Did you put the softclose hardware in?

We special ordered cabinets for the kitchen and baths, which they cracked while installing the hardware.   

I bought an indoor thermometer from the hardware store and gave it to her.

Just want to make sure I am on the same page...Keep in mind when thinking about property managers, they have overhead of conducting business, including employee wages and benefits, hardware and software costs, utilities and rent for their office location, insurance costs, licensing costs for their employees plus the time and effort put into maintaining compliance with applicable laws regarding third party management of real estate assets.

I personally would go with luver style, but if you wanna keep them change the hardware, I'm curious if anyone else has a recommendation

Leverage is bad when the market dips or crashes and you feel the ripple in your wallet.

Don't jump for your wallet just yet.If you have a home warranty, and they are telling you the soonest would be Monday.
