By investing in a high-quality $109,106 renovation, we modernized the home, improved curb appeal, and upgraded key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms.

Quote from @Landon Sheveland: Curb appeal to attract attention, then kitchens and bathrooms are usually the most important areas to focus on.

Improved Landscaping, LPV Flooring, new kitchen and bathrooms.

Does it need kitchen and bathrooms?

14 - How many bathrooms will there be?

Bathrooms: Especially the primary bathroom!

houston is probably similar pricing to Columbus Ohio but way worse zoning laws. we take 20% on top as a GC and a guaranteed fee agreement. our contracted new construction projects recently:Single family new build spec home: 1513 square feet with 3 beds 2.5 baths 1 car attached $275000 approx $182 a square foot if calculated using heated square feet which means our cost is $145 a square foot. 3 unit / triplex new construction: 2008 square feet 2 bedrooms 1 bath per unit or total 6 bedrooms 3 bathrooms with 3 off street parking spaces. contracted build cost $395,000. no garage on this and better economies of scale with shared roof, slab, etc. $192 a square foot hard cost with our cost running approximately $157 a square foot. 

Instead of debates and personal opinion, look for proof https://www.ladbs.org/docs/default-source/forms/plan-check-2017/single-family-dwelling-duplex-plan-review-list.pdf under G (Interior Env) which defines the minimum requirement of a habitable room (aka bedroom or bathroom).

Everyone has their own room and a bathroom and they share common space such as living room, dining room and a kitchen and they are one the same lease.

If this property is hard to rent, or is functionally obsolescent (only 1 bathroom, no yard, etc), or has deferred maintenance that will be costly, or is in a location that is not appealing to Tenants, then maybe a sale would be a good option in favor of a property that has better Tenant appeal, which will likely increase rent and avoid long vacancies in between Tenants.An option to consider....
