The exterior and common areas are in great condition and present well 

They are safe in terms of HOA taking care of exterior, roofs, driveways, snow removal, etc.

.- It needed a community face lift and re-brand (was called windmill apartments....yuck.)We came in and strategically worked our business plan:- We upgraded the exterior including fresh paint, signage, and landscaping.- We removed delinquent tenants and changed the community standards around to provide a safe and clean place of living.- We've upgraded 75% of the units with fresh flooring, paint, cabinets, countertops, and appliances as needed.When we took over the property the 16 units were producing around $9000/month in gross rent.I just checked our rent roll today, and we just crossed $17,000 in gross income monthly!

I am having a designer come up with three options for interior and exterior combinations that are in the same price point.

I learned that free paint to a tenant to paint the exterior doesn't get the job done, even when it was their idea.

Once did a mold test on a house near a swamp and the interior air had LESS mold spores than the exterior!

I just talked with a Behr Rep and their new Dynasty line of exterior paint is expected to last 20 years, and that's in the desert..

It was suppose to be a 6 days rehab, and the contractor has done almost nothing to the property (beside painting the exterior of the house).

Never assume anything with a newbie. haha I have reviewed the bylaws and through my untrained eye I did not see a clear statement about the windows, just general statement about adjusting the exterior of the building, so I have requested additional information. 

The worst one needed a new roof, a new AC, new exterior paint, interior paint, new appliances, etc.
