The properties will be structurally sound, a good location, and a good surrounding market but are poorly managed that are in need of minor cosmetic repairs such as, out dated inefficient kitchens, bathrooms, appliances, old windows, old inefficient lights, high expenses, old non-separate metered heating and cooling units, along with ugly curb appeal/landscaping.We will not purchase commercial properties that have the following issues:-A structural problem (interior bearing walls, foundation & exterior walls)- A significant environmental issue (underground leaking tanks or mold)-A neighborhood that has an oversupply of commercial properties and have a vacant rate of more than 15%.

That said, my husband thinks the exterior of the house is quite ugly and needs "a lot of work" - I'm frugal and argue that we can give it a good pressure wash and maybe some decorative shutters and it will be fine for our niche of tenants (who care little about curb appeal).It's winter so I'm not even sure if we can get the siding cleaned right now.

The following issue has arisen with the tenant recently where he:1.Has indicated he will no longer be taking out his garbage from bins at the side of the property to the nearby curb for municipal garbage collection.

There were only 4 pictures, showing off the curb view, the living room, dining room and the kitchen.

The right one is to start an eviction, take them to court, get an eviction, and put their stuff on the curb.

Duluth has a city ordinance to curb the abundance of rental homes near campus that prevents new rental licenses from being granted to any home that is within 500 feet of another rental property.

Garage doors are rough, asphalt, fencing etc. needs work but the grounds are neat and well kept and it's a has decent curb appeal.

We want the house to have nice curb appeal so we put down sod and red mulch.

I want to put in enough landscaping to give it some curb appeal for the appraisal but not spend so much that it's money lost if the tenants don't take care of it.

Around here a lot of homes the responsibility ends at the street or the curb.
