I've had a passion to work for myself ever since I was young, and after starting my own "Pressure washing" business a little over a year ago,  I have found Real Estate to become a very heart driven path for me (Considering I work on houses).

Or for accredited investors, syndications who have apartment complexes, self storage, car washes?

@Sarah WatanabeI bought my first rental while washing dishes at a restaurant.

When I asked who the CEO was, he gave me Judith info.

We had one deal fall wash out last year (and I only started in July last year) due to deferred maintenance.  

@Yunfan Wang, I would go with Denali and lighten the walls, definitely consider applying a lime wash to the brick fireplace to modernize it.

I just got my hands dirty on one and rinse wash and repeat. 

I have even washed them between tenants, or for a long tenancy, I just replace them.Just zip in the brackets well (hit a stud) and measure to get the right size curtain, height may be the key with not much space between the top of the sliding door and ceiling.Best of luck.
