I agree with @Larry Fried.  

Now I'm wondering if I should just do better upgrades to a couple of things now and aim for a better clientele (and higher rent) than I thought I might get for my first tenant.For instance, the bathroom had some old plastic tile on the walls.

Thank you @Larry Fried and @Justin Fraser as well!

I spent $4,000 recently for a problem with a sewer line that ended up being a chunk of plastic lid off the sewer cleanout.

Tell them they don't take plastic and listen to them get out of that one.Get a whoopie cushion and put it under a seat cushion in any public place for your friend to sit on.Kids at Halloween: The best was the old burning bag trick.

I am in nothwest Dallas County and have almost 40 years of experience.It might be because of plastic that a lot of cities made builders do.  

Hang a plastic liner on the shower pole, that costs nothing and looks good/better then nothing,better pictures and talk about the viewCould you use a new vanity in the bathroom and could your mirror be better/  How about your counter top there?
