I can give you an example in my market here in Cbus for SFH 1,200 sqft:Roof - $7k to $9k Siding - $9k Windows - $450/window labor + material Flooring - $5/sqft Paint - $3k to $4kStandard Kitchen - $7k Standard bathroom - $5k This is just a general idea from what I am seeing. 

And no one is being negative, they are painting a realistic picture of the outlook for you.

Simplify as many standard processes such as online rent payment, leases, apartment turns, paint, and other materials, and re-key all locks to a master system.

I believe that paints the picture of who you are competing against and who you are dealing with. 

In the 6 months I'll be doing some rehab (paint, floors, some fixtures, new island, etc.).

Is it painted chartreuse?

Needs some light exterior work (paint, caulk, broken vinyl siding).

I think there is really trying to do your best as a syndicator and then gross negligence projecting deals that are riskier than they are but painting a picture of less risk to induce capital to purchase.

A big trick is to do cosmetic updates to max out the rents, for example most deals I sell we raise rents a good 30-100% after paint, new counters, new flooring, paint/replace cabinets.

It's painted green.
