Most of the work is cosmetic - a lot of wallpaper removal, painting, refinishing and repairing floors, new kitchen in one unit.

If it is deemed cosmetic, meaning it is not making it unsafe or uninhabitable then it is up for discretion.

The work I did was cosmetic to update to his taste.

Can someone recommend a good property management company, perhaps an agent and either a contractor or someone who can do light/cosmetic work or a project manager for such.

My tentative plan is to accumulate (over the next 3-5 years)-3-5 light/cosmetic flips-3-5 hold/buy rentals-1 vacation property (beach or mountain)I'm considering driving for dollars, marketing to owners of neglected properties and using other methods to help folks that need to unload properties GET OUT and then turning around and creating quality housing opportunities that are (hopefully) more affordable for families than much of what's currently available in this market. 

It was larger (4/3 2500 sq ft), in a really nice area  and not really what I typically consider a good candidate for a sfh rental but I bought it because it was priced 60k under market and needed minor cosmetic things totaling about 10k.

Hey guys, I need some advice on a potential investment (Rental property), I've been looking for a couple of months for my 1st rental property and something came up this week, in a great neighborhood, 200,000 ARV selling for 150,000 with minor cosmetic repairs needed.

I'll give a little bit of context and hope that someone can help me creatively think of a way to help.Lady bought house before married, decently taken care of it, only outdated cosmetically, BUT massive foundation issues thus the distress. 

Once the mortgage is paid off, then the real difference sets in.I’m trying to create a plan, to either do a flip first, or to renovate a rental property first, and at this point I’m leaning toward a Section 8 multi family rental, then later on concentrate on a cosmetic flip.Thank you Rick

For a B class neighborhood you will be looking at a 120K+ plus cosmetic updates.
