Paint the walls; can't go wrong with some light gray in 2019 (like Sherwin Williams Agreeable Gray).

I have still yet to find a property in need of such a light rehab though, so this approach might really just be wishful thinking.

. - a local property manager can shad some light if RUBS are common practice or not. 

My wife didnt want me to at first because it takes up wall space but now we have a private exit and added light into the room.

Honolulu is getting a light rail and Kapolei is bearly recognizable these days.

You are looking to do one of two things if this is a valid issue with apartments.com light a fire under her to resolve it now and pay or if she really won't pay start the eviction process. 

I will also see what we can do to draw even more attention to the front door - with things like better lights or trim work. 

Electricians can buy the wire they like.But I would never let a GC buy or choose the appliances, carpet, flooring, light fixtures, faucets, trim, doors, toilets, etc.

Besides large ant farm community housing, I’m literally the only game in town.My units are brand new stainless steel kitchens, butcher block countertops, LED lighting, etc on and on it goes.That being said, comparable cap rates for multi family (not updated) are selling for around 10.5%, and I purchased the property at a 10% cap rate.The commercial lender at wesbanco wanted to use a cap rate structure in determining value of the property.

Either way, it's the business owner's fault.It's your business, which means it's your responsibility if something goes wrong.I haven't had an issue like this since 2010, when one of my painters painted all the trim in one of my houses a light purple, instead of white.
