I had to have it paint it, as a result I had to have the rest of the doors painted in the unit so they all looks same color.( Most of Other doors chipped by them.)4. part of lock for my patio sliding door is missing, both the doors can’t be locked.

Rehab wasn't too strenuous and i did myself with the help of my family - Re landscape garden, painted inside, re grouted bathroom tiling etc to freshen up.

Training them simply means you control the conversation and interaction not them.An example, a tenant calls and says, "can you paint my apt a different color, I don't like it".

Used equity in another property to limited by down payment to $6500, other cash put into paint and minor cosmetics How did you add value to the deal?

Updating bathrooms, floors, paint, kitchen What was the outcome?

@Chris Gawlik on vacancies we have the same paint color, the same flooring, VCT in common and we use a laminate in units, same stoves, same refrigerators same everything for the most part.

We renovated the upstairs with included: new kitchen countertops and backsplash, adding a half bath and laundry room to the main floor, refinishing the hardwood floors, painting everything, refreshing the main and master bathrooms (paint, new fixtures, regrouting tub/shower surrounds).

I also did not clean or paint the house and left all that to the tenant. 

Most of the time we (my husband and I) have no problem painting, mopping, scrubbing and dusting a bit between tenant transitions. 

I installed it and painted with exterior paint and caulked all seems in my showers.. looks good.
