Your solution looks great and gives you the option to get fresh air in there.

Fellow BPers,A2Z has been a breath of fresh air compared to my previous property manager, so far so good!

With slapping a fresh coat of paint of the decks I think it could be a very marketable rental.

Anyways so what Natalie said up there is just its a temporary exemption on 6+ freshly planted fruit trees intended to not tax you for improvements (Fruits trees) before they produce.

I knew right away these clowns did something very bad and when I went to look at their work it looked like they sprayed the paint on the wall with a garden hose with no nozzle on it and the paint looked like stalagmites and icicles pouring down the wall.

This  would allow me to pay down an additional $40,000 of debt, leaving more funds from the cash out refi for rehabbing a non-income-producing garden unit in another building that I have sitting there.

It costs you vacancy, fresh paint, new flooring, potentially other updates. 

If, however, you are starting out fresh, and it is appearing as a new listing with no reviews, you could market it that way by taking fresh photos and giving it a face lift with the summary calling out that it is a new listing.

If no, give them notice, recoup what you can from their deposit, fix the unit, and start fresh with a new tenant.

For example, adding a back deck, garden area and dog washing shed in a few of my properties to ensure I attract the best tenants and they appreciate living in my property (and don’t leave).
