Jay Maranan Carpet for rental unit? Yes? No?
15 March 2020 | 74 replies
@Jay Maranan just an FYI, my primary property is 5 stories, of which almost all the carpet in the units has been removed(90%)...the original flooring is beautiful oak, that was original installed over 90 years ago, however, the units that just have the carpet torn up, sanded and stained the original flooring are much louder that the units, that I lay down subfloor, underlayment foam, and new floors over the original solid wood(I know it is sinful to purists, to not refinish the original wood, but it cost more, takes longer, is louder, and less isolation of bugs, and leaves some of the earthquake retrofit hardware exposed, if I do that) ....BUT, with carpet and/or wood floors it will be noisey...that's why the 5th floor are the "PentHouse" units, since no upstairs neighbors, even though identical layout to the below units, they can demand a bit of premium, especially if your new tenant has lived in apartments before.
