On the next rehab, I vowed to myself that I wouldn't put on my tool bag, and I would even consider hiring a GC to handle everything turn-key.

As mentioned there is a big language barrier, but from my perspective I was lead to believe it would only be a few bags.

Though I couldn't really appreciate it...What pulled the trigger was an incidence that I attempted to take down a broken drop ceiling tile, but ended up with all the dust and mouse droppings above it falling all over my face......This is a minor cosmetic job completed in three and half day by my contractor and one of his guy. 

Well commissions are sort of a mixed bag, with a lower fee sometimes agents are less likely to want to show the property and they will snub you. 

@Talley Haines 6th grade explanation:You buy a bag of candy (rental property) but your parents (the IRS) won't let you eat (depreciate) the entire bag (total basis of the rental property) at one time.

as a thank you and if we meet a bag of nice Colombian coffee :) where I'm from, I do source the real stuff, I know people... lolThank you!

Even it's work the buyer will never have to do, many can't see past the dirt, dust, etc.

We found 300 beer cans in 8 garbage bags in the side yard the day they left and it needed a deep cleaning. 

It was one of the primary drivers of the crash because people got into properties they weren't qualified for and didn't have equity and were left holding the bag when the market shifted.  

They broke the porch and security door, haven't cut the grass or cleaned drainage area in front of the house, they have not paid for trash pick up.and when I was in the house last there were multiple bags of trash piled up inside.I just fixed the house from the last tenants paint, floors  etc.
