I'm looking forward to soaking in some great wisdom among the experienced members here, and I hope to help others avoid some headache/costs along the way, too.

The carpet is soaked up to a foot from the wall inside the bedrooms.The property was built In 2022 and is a detached single family house.

A burly gent with a saws all would make quick work of it if it were mine.I know these old timers make comfy bathtubs for those who like to soak--nice and deep-but the sides are tall, requiring a large step over and to me the antique look is not something I want to offer the market.A shower with a surround can be a relativity easy install and makes the unit from what I would consider a "Boutique" or (lower income) offering to a more mainstream modern offering.Personally I would not rent a unit with a claw tub for myself to live in.A shower with a spray wand attachment and a mixing valve setup is a modern offering.And for a unit that might appeal more to those with tikes in the house, a bathtub with a surround would be my choice.But of course if money is the issue another repainting might solve the problem, especially if you cannot raise the rent with a more modern offering.Are the current renters tub soakers who love this setup?

VA loan is no longer an option because the first two houses soaked up that allotment, so I'll be looking at conventional or FHA from here.

:D I've been tirelessly browsing the forums soaking up all the information I can get my hands on; but I have some unanswered questions.

I’m thrilled to be soaking up all the knowledge I can get here on BP!!

If a tenant spills or drops something on the flooring it can be easily cleaned up and the smell can not soak up into the flooring.Ventilation could be an issue in hallways as well.

And I'm looking to soak up as much knowledge and guidance as I can absorb. 

My "WHY" dictated that I needed about $1k per year to reach a 3 year goal of 3k per year.I basically ran through all the podcasts to soak up as much knowledge as possible in about 4 months.

After reading multiple books on financial independence, Real Estate Kept popping up, so I took the leap of faith this year to really dive in a soak up as much knowledge from this awesome community as well as contribute.
