I have been slacking on my moderating, but I just survived the busiest time of year at my day job, so I am ready to get back in my BP groove.

One thing to note is the subfloor was 1/2" plywood over 2x6 tongue and groove.

The interlock ones have grooves and requires no glue, but the Vinyl planks need glue and is cheaper to purchase.

There's a tiny home community in Bend too, called Hiatus by Tongue and Groove,  but from what I understand there was a lot of opposition from neighbors.

So for my inspection calls, only two things always come with: my bag, which has my papers, the mighty little Juice, extra screwdriver bits, and my injection-molded toolkit case that I bought from Costco three years ago.The most important tool that this kit is missing for me is a small Channellock tongue-and-groove pliers, which I also carry in my bag.

I would recommend property managers get in the groove because if they have right people they can get these things done for absentee owner and charge a little more for their property management services.

Also no more rotten floors from the tenants not knowing how to close a shower curtain.Hardwood floors are the most durable, (even better than tile because of the grout and cracking) but any deep scratches totally ruins the beautiful grain so I solved that by using 4x8 sheets of tongue and grooved sub floor ( the OSB, chipboard type stuff, [not plywood] and finishing it just like hardwood.

Certainly address the mechanicals, you will need to comply with HUD guidelines for health and safety and after that, it is up to you. the following basic materials are for you to consider when completing your renovation, while considering the future implications of tenant turn-over:*FlooringNO CarpetTile wet areas if this in your budget or simply install a resilient Rubberized Vinyl Floor plank systemGeneral areas - either refinish hardwood if existing or a new resilient tongue & groove laminate flooring*PaintStandardize the paint color throughout the entire interior, do not get fancy with painting different rooms different color, just more of a headache to deal with at each tenant turnover*ElectricalUpdated electrical schedule, new outlets and switches you want everything to be nice and bright, you want the wow factor no matter the area or rents, you want everything to be clean and look appealingNew Lighting schedule - consider using LED - it is brighter (better presentation) - more energy efficient and should be a smaller maintenance burned over time.

I would jump at the chance to take old tongue and groove flooring, even pine, out of a house to be demoed.

You could do a 3" tongue and groove wood decking system.
