@Sam BoothTrim trees (don't cut down), flowers or plants along walk way, paint door, river rock or some stone where bushes are, Dark mulch around tree, plant grass, drink a beer and call it a day.That said, I have no idea about the ARV in the neighborhood so that could be too much work...or too little.

Your rental income and expenses would end up on your personal return and could net to zero, but not be deductible (unless you have real estate professional status).Bill does have a good idea about living in a residence for two years, fixing it up, and selling it with the exclusion (up to 500k for a married couple), if that was something you wanted to do.  

I had no idea this was happening!
