I am only an aspiring investor, but I am a local resident of Niagara Falls, NY and I am hoping I can shed some light on your question about the winters:) I have worked in the tourism industry in the past, my husband still works in tourism.

A complete overhaul of the kitchen and bathrooms, including cabinets, countertops, LVP flooring, electrical and plumbing fixtures.

We re-piped the plumbing with Pex, installed new toilets, new showers, new hoses & fixtures.

I've been doing some light reading, and it sounds like refinancing that property and using the proceeds to reinvest elsewhere might be a better option. 

I'm fine with doing some minor fixes and improvements to a property: Adding overhead lighting/fans, better flooring, maybe redoing a main bathroom.

In one of them, we get a lot of traffic, and the other is very light.

I would add specific details like pictures of the fixtures/flooring/cabinets.....SKU #s and pictures of everything.

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

The Property Manager usually does light cleaning and repairs between tenants.Recommendations or another way to think about this? 

Finishes for fixtures?
