Hello BP fam,I'm planning on upgrading my flooring from carpet to some sort of laminate/vinyl/hybrid flooring - both for personal (allergy) purposes in the short-term, and for re-sale in the long term (6mo+).

Replace old windows and frames with vinyl. 

Function Meets Design – A stunning rental is useless if it doesn’t function seamlessly for guests.

I just find our process here, contracts and real estate here much more seamless, which when you're out of state investing, is crucial.

I started by patching about a dozen (not small) holes in the wall, re-doing all the drywall in the bathroom, installing new shower plumbing, putting in recessed lighting, installing seamless LVP throughout, texturing/priming/painting all walls, installing new 5 inch pine baseboard all around, and installing custom bathroom vanity/pantry cabinets, and hanging new custom shaker doors in the kitchen.

All new distressed grey luxury vinyl throughout with freshly painted walls and new baseboards.

With our capital backing, the deal was executed seamlessly, leading to a fast and profitable resale.
