"Hard" work is installing sheetrock for an entire day only to come back the next day to tape and mud for hours on end day after day before you have to tape everything off to blow texture for four hours and then retape everything to paint the trim after you've spackled and sanded the trim 3 times and then you get to retape everything to actually paint the walls.I know from my own personal experience and from helping other investors get started and ACTUALLY SUCCEED long term with a career in REI that my continual blowing of happy elevator music straight up their wannabe's kilt is REALITY.

It usually costs me around $5k for that job, however, I use one paint color for ceilings, one for walls, and one for trim, so I have a 3 tome paint scheme in each house.

You should get some replies this targeted audience.If you can trim down your list as you mentioned this should be time well spent.I did this and had someone give me a perfectly good (needed some TLC) house that I just had to go pay the taxes on.You could flip some of these and wholesale off the ones you don't want.

Hi guys, I was just wondering, if the trim and doors in the house is the older oak look, but still is in good shape; would you replace it or repaint it white?
