I will refresh my tech skills and reenter the workforce, but the economic downturn will hurt that.How can I get $250k in financing to buy out the co-owner with so little income?

those words are: remodeled, refreshed, new, refurbished, upgraded, and similar words...As soon as I see them I feel like there is little value I can add to it and since I am not looking for a turn key rental, I have to skip those homes. 

It is refreshing to hear that so many people are just beginning this journey as well!

Refreshing to see this instead of the typical "my property manager sucks" BP post.My company is on the front lines and it's damn hard right now.

Hi BPers' -
We're a licensed lender in California. Just started to experiment with small fix up loans to home sellers. Compass and Berkshire are offering home sellers ZERO interest loans to fix up their houses for s...

Rehab choices - We decided to do a full refresh.

Kept refreshing posts until we found our tenants. 

Maybe just ask if they could refresh the walls + floors? 

If the compition demands a higher refurbishment (counter tops, and cabinets) then do that, but just a refresh on this unit (from the pics) looks like paint and LVP might be enough.I'd leave the cabinets and counter tops brown (unless competition dictates redoing them).Also a daylight bulb in the kitchen of the highest wattage the fixture will hold might make the area look better when you show it.The less income the resident has, the more bulb wattage they seem to like in the kitchen (they cook at home more).Good Luck! 

I've gotten some expensive quotes for refreshing etched finishes.
