Not sure that offering central air has THAT big of an impact on rent or marketability.

I was asked about that yesterday by Dan Proft while taping for his Illinois Rising radio show that airs on Sunday.

I heard a podcast recently where one investor would not look at apartments unless they had central heat/ air.  

Thanks, Jordan.

What's your average life span for the following:- AC and air handler/furnace (replace both at the same time?)

The HOA won't allow weekly rentals or Air BnB style stuff which is a shame because I could rent the heck out of it for the summer and winter (it's near both lakes, mountains, Tanglewood, and a ski resort).

We once replaced the cracked single pane window in a kitchen, because that was the worst one in the apartment, and the day that it was installed the tenant asked us why we didn't replace his bedroom window first, because it was blowing cold air on his head when he slept.  

Hey @Jordan Decuir I would be happy to sit down with you some time and tell you what banks look for.  

To make a long story short, she was lying about leaking skylights, air conditioners, stoves, and many other items.
