The one thing I will do to my units to make them more attractive to tenants is I will spend a little bit extra to put in slightly (but not extravagantly) nicer finishes ... things like brushed nickle hardware instead of brass or chrome, laminate floors instead of carpets, etc. and keep my units in good condition ... therefore, even if I charge market rent it is a good deal since my units have slightly nicer finishes ... if I take pride in my units and they are in good locations, then I find it will attract quality tenants who will also take care of my units, and no they do not leave when I raise rents up to the max the market will bear.

Warm white or a soft beige is nice and neutral for cabinets. 

If you are too soft and accepting of everything, a buyer can think "what is wrong?". 

Take your time, buy nice brushes and go for a 14 inch roller and this is fairly easy to do. 

I'm thinking I may need to seal/coat the exterior walls - one person I talked to thinks moisture may be coming in from the walls and getting sucked into the soft bricks.

I am hoping to like many others build up a good retirement through real estate and are looking for opportunities to learn good practices, soft skills and gain confidence and build repeatable systems that can scale. 

I would like to have zero dollars out of pocket except for soft costs. 

Obviously Austin has taken a hit on prices and continues to be soft at the moment.

If not, that's on you.I would've paid him a more fair amount and got a soft & firm estimation on completion, and priced him to do it on the quicker of the two with no workmanship issues.

Effectively, you get 6 years of experience through 6 weeks of this course, saving precious time and boosting success sooner.I already have about $300K soft-committed through just a few contacts I've been able to do my pitch for.
