I'm going to disagree emphatically with @Steve Morris if you are in the wrong, tenants (and most (non-disordered) people) will respect you, if you apologize and fix the problem. 

Having an eye sore for a listing, with an anxious distressed seller is not necessarily an optimal scenario for an agent.

Not only is mine cost effective, it also still matches the surrounding buildings and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

I've been driving for dollars, writing down the addresses of distressed properties - the ones that stick out like a sore thumb within a neighborhood of nice/really nice houses.I get home and look them each up on zillow and then on the county's audit wesbite.

After making a few grand I'd probably be miserable, sore and pissed off and would take the money and buy some stock options or something.

More and more American couples prefer to sleep in separate beds due to insomnia, sleep apnea, or other sleep disorders. 

The easiest way to handle this is the same way you would if you went to the doctor because of a sore arm.When the Doctor asks what's wrong and you answer that it hurts when you raise your arm, what's the first thing the Doctor says to you?

Not sarcasm - I'm also serious on the dis-service I think wholesalers do to sellers, most of who are at a disadvantage.As a broker I'm required to disclose all pertinent info and I don't decide what the seller (or buyer) needs to know or not know.I find all these traits sorely lacking in the few wholesalers I've turned in.  

The management company swore that he was needed there and the tenants loved him and he would be sorely missed if he wasn't there everyday. 

So RE investment to outproduce stock market in my calculations has to exceed 10%.
