What was the outcome?

I am not sure about your outcome but, it is worth a try or rent it out to another tenant many people need housing. 

For this specific property, my current assessment is that while there is definitely improvements that can be made to the landscaping, for the neighborhood it doesn't make much sense to invest in it.Curious what others have experienced when it comes to attracting tenants in relation to investing in landscaping for LT rental properties.

Surveys are my area of expertise ;)Ultimately, I tend to agree with you that allowing pets, with specific guidelines and screening criteria for good pet owners, will often yield greater occupancy thus allowing you to increase rates.

Purchase price: $267,000 Cash invested: $100,000 This purchase was made for a very specific purpose.

Reach out if you have any specific questions about investing!

For this you may want to learn more about the specifics of deal analysis and that is where I would probably recommend books like The Book on Rental Property Investment by Brandon Turner.For raising capital there may be regulations in the UK that differ from the U.S. so it would probably be best to consult with a real estate attorney.

If one contractor can lead you to another and they do good work together the overall outcome of your project is going to be smoother and higher quality.

Thanks for reading my long winded post, I realize with situations like these there are no "correct" decisions only different decisions that yield different outcomes.

Specifically, do you stipulate rent is due on the typical 1st of the month?
