If the property can compete at market value rent with the properties that surround in its "As-Is" state,  then yes, slap on a coat paint, replace the carpet, shine the hardwoods, buff up the walls and replace the wall sockets and the door knobs. 

I would recommend a gently used home if at all possible because your future maintenance could be substantial depending on what they cut corners on, sub par materials used, etc.

This flooring can be screened and recoated which buffs the surface and removes general wear and tear. 6.

If I had my license, I would tread lightly- but push them back to their agent gently.

I'd recommend disclosing that fact about your neighborhood (gently and tactfully) in your Airbnb listing description.

MF tenants are not generally known for being gentle on properties, so you should keep a significant amount in reserve for repairs and to turn overs.

Initially, we were renting furniture from a rental company, but after analyzing the cost of gently used furniture versus rental I determined the payback period was roughly 9 months if we bought the furniture instead of renting it.

I am new to REI so please be gentle lol.

I will gently pull out the existing device, and so long as there is not too much wire in there (the prior guy did it right), I will back out the existing screws and use the same strip/bend.

Outside of that I try to keep a close eye on Market values in the near suburbs of the major cities Roch/buff/Syracuse/Albany which property $ have been on the rise along with most of the nation, which is bringing a lot to flippers out, but I’m more interested in the BRRR long term arena for now. 800-1200$ per door specifically in a suburb driving distance to one of the major city.
