It is about 1300 sq ft, I'm leaning towards LVP throughout and a pretty standard kitchen update-white cabinets, granite or quartz counter tops.

Wayne Indiana for a funeral and just need a place to stay that is convenient and cost effective and doesn't care about amenities and such.

@Lucas MoralesIf you have coin op laundry in the building as well make sure you have a machine that gives quarters as I have had people use the vending machine to get their quarters for laundry and you have to constantly restock it.Personally I would say it’s not worth it unless you are far from grocery / convenience store.

Many tenants are willing to pay extra for convenience, which could give you additional cash flow without a full rent hike.Reassess Your Portfolio→ If one or more properties have become too burdensome with high expenses, it may be worth considering whether selling and reinvesting in a different market or property type makes sense for your overall portfolio.While raising rents is the most straightforward approach, these alternative strategies can help reduce costs and increase revenue without disrupting tenant relations.If you need help assessing the numbers or exploring financing options to lower your monthly expenses, feel free to reach out → I’d be happy to help!
