For example you said "remove all existing toilets" which is great a perfectly clear doesn't leave anything that will be a question of your interpretation vs the GC's.On the other hand "removal of damaged sheetrock" may possibly lead to (contrived) you believe it is water damaged and should be removed, GC believes it is just discolored and only needs fresh paint.That's just an example and maybe the easiest way to attack that kind of thing without having to spend a massive amount of time and energy would be to have a clause about the "acceptable condItion" which is your discretion not the GC or maybe a short list of definitions that is standard across all your SOWs that define acceptable condition....If you have RocketLawyer or know a great contracts guy I am sure they could help fairly quickly.Again, no expert but that is what came to mind, I will be interested to see the other replies.

The apartments look they it's been a while since they've had a fresh coat of paint or new carpets, and although I'm not looking to remodel anything, I'm curious, beyond fixing any glaring issues, how much rehabbing of the units would you recommend?   

because if you can generate the fresh motivated seller leads you can negotiate a deal and either sell it on or buy it.

My wife and skipped taking a honeymoon, and bought our first condo in DC freshly rehabed from a developer.

Unless you really need the deductions for tax purposes for 2013 I would just start fresh in 2014.
