@Michael S. tenants always claim to be expert painters, but I have had paint on woodwork and even carpet when I let tenants paint.

Also, keep notes for items we order for each villa and notes like paint colors used...almost like a villa diary.I would love something that could generate reports as well and is customizable for each villa I have.   

We buffed the floors (rented the buffer at Home Depot and got a buffing 101 lesson on You Tube), painted the walls, got new socket plates, new appliances (fridge, dryer, washer).

Obviously structural is capital expenditure, but if you replaced old windows (repair) or paint (repair).

The property will be a rental that needs a good amount of work up front to fix it up (will be like a BRRRR) like electrical, plumbing, floors, paint, reno on bathroom and kitchen.

Drywall, paint, flooring and cabinets.

You are required by both state and federal law to remediate any lead-containing products (paint, putty, etc) and obtain a de-leading certificate.If you have a handicapped tenant or applicant, you may not refuse to rent a unit to him or her.

There wasn't a lot to choose from when we were looking in 2016 and I feel we rushed into our purchase a bit but so far it's worked out pretty well.

The photo might look ok, but a quick check on Google Earth showed neighboring properties with untended lawns, peeling paint, rusting trucks, and cracked pavement.

We are going to narrow our focus to one of these markets for now and get our feet wet by finding the right realtor, property manager, lender, and contractors in the market we choose.
