For example I have been looking at how I can incorporate restaurant stainless kitchen sinks and cabinets in a way that comes off as "modern industrial" and not the lunch lady's retirement home.

We continue to find spiders and ants crawling throughout random areas of the house (probably because all the baseboards and door casing are 1/4 inch from being tight, and the fake wood floor that was put in was done in such a way that I can see dirt underneath certain spots where it is short from the wall/cabinets), but I try to deal with the spiders and ants on my own by just spraying some bug killer purchased at Target - I don't want to be that needy tenant.About a month into our lease, I am giving the apartment a deep clean, and I end up finding two dead roaches.  

All appliances/cabinets/bathrooms are original (1960s) but functional and look spotless.

I then made a motion to have them remove the documented information that we had "interfered with parking enforcement" considering its not a real policy and that it is unlawful to document such accusations and opinions without facts dialogue corroboration and it seems to me they are building a caee against me that they can later use to target or retalliate if they werent doing so already.... it is not in any of the by laws of the cc&r or parking policies..They denied my request to erase the false accusation of interference and assured me the only person to see that record was the secretarys file cabinet..which i called BS because clearly the last parking vioaltion notice i had received the volunteer parking enforecement had hand written down on the notice that my fiance had interfered with the towing of a neighbors car.. at this point i feel powerless i feel i am getting targetted and retalliated against. which by the way is against the law.. ive saved every document letter and issuance they have sent me. so hopefully it doesnt persist...i feel we need a set of checks and balances cause in my opinion this is starting to clearly look like the HOA is overstepping there powers and not lawfully following their fiduciary duties...

The cabinets do not look damaged. 

Also looking for bulk/wholesale pricing on vinyl plank flooring and cabinet hardware. 

Unless you have a turbo toilet that will accept paper towels, address that issue as well.Unless you have a clause in your lease agreement about standards for cleanliness, not much you can say about spills in the cabinet or trash on the floor.

I want to do a new:kitchen (cabinets, tiles floors, granite counter tops, backsplash)new bathroom (tub, toilet, vanity tile floor)Interior: refinish floors, replace a few doors, replace all outlets/light switches, patch and paint all wallsExterior: a couple roof and gutter repairs, and paint exterior trim/window/sofit/facia.So its not a big renovation, mechanicals are all good.So my question, should I find a GC to handle all this?  

The business center also comes will all equipment, computers, printers, plotters, scanners, file cabinets, desks, ( everything ) ..

I will be following up with you soon, but for the next few days I will be trying to get all my cabinets painted before the tile guy arrives on Monday morning.
