Patch it and paint it.

Painting this future image will connect your investment decisions with your goals.

Went to the open house and there is black mold in the garage, green mold on the ceiling and rotted and falling paint from a leaky roof.

Finally, I used the Thumbtack app, and I made more progress in six days than I did in the past 75 days on painting, flooring, lighting install, HVAC repairs.I currently use apartments.com for my automatic rent collection, so that system is helpful. 

Now, three years later, my tenant reported cracks in every room—paint cracking and full-line cracks in the bathroom, living room, and bedroom (walls, ceiling).A drywall contractor looked at it and said it’s normal wear and tear, but I’m concerned since it’s in every room.

Paint, Plumbing, Roof, Flooring, appliances.B- neighborhood.55,750 down payment + 20k in repairs.  75750 all in.Median rent for the neighborhood is 2k.532 cash flow.I already asked them to drop the price by 15k for us to remain in the deal. 

New flooring, paint, appliances, toilet, etc..

(i.e. initial decorating and painting, bookings, rate structures, marketing, bookkeeping housekeeping, etc)? 

The tenant fails to pay their last month's rent and leaves the place needing new flooring and paint.

It wasn’t easy—there were tons of repairs needed, from plumbing and electrical updates to cosmetic fixes like flooring and painting.
