We updated the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, garage, stairs, trim, hand rails, window sills and lighting.

I’ve had tenants cut down trees and some trim their trees for me.

The trim, walls, and ceilings have been painted so many times the lead is buried under multiple layers of paint and it doesn’t test hot.The windows can be replaced and the lead can be fairly easily contained and removed.

I wouldn't hesitate to spend the money if I were seeing value, and to top it off, things are exceptionally tight this year as I've not had W2 income since November so while a good tax preparer isn't exactly where I'd typically choose to trim expenses, I don't have a good one....

@Matthew Trim - Have you tried AirDNA to help with the forecasts?

@Matthew Trim Mathew send me a DM and I will send you a CRE underwriting worksheet

I purchased the property and renovated the interior and painted the wood trim on the exterior.

I just remodeled my duplex (new floors, trim, doors, cabinets, appliances, garage doors, paint, bathroom vanity/sink/mirror, toilet, closet doors, etc.).

Termites will often target baseboard trim, window trim, etc. because those woods are apparently more delectable to them...

When we were ready to turn it, we did a refresh on the trim, had it painted and a kitchen remodel done with new cabinets and counters.
