I did a full cosmetic rehab on this property---all new paint, flooring, kitchen, bathroom, hardware, etc.

We had all property expenses covered by the tenant's rent along with $1,000 paid to the HELOC each month, as well as approximately $900 for capital expenses, repairs, vacancy etc.For the 6 months in 2021, we didn't make much, but the tenant stayed until Oct. 31, 2022 so we have 10 months rent in 2022 rather than 6 like in 2021.Paint, landscaping, cleaning, etc. for the turnover is approaching $3,500 so that is taking a bite out of the income.

Zinzer also makes what they call a mold killing paint.

LVP flooring and a little bit of paint.

We spent several thousand on the cleaning, touch-up paint, and repairs.

Paint, roof patches, not much rehab on this one.

renovating, updating floors, exterior, paint, windows and doors What was the outcome?

I don't live on sight for most of my rentals, if you were on sight signs might be OK.Put some research into how to compose a good listing to screen out scammers and window shoppers.

I did an addition 2 years ago , the homeowner couldnt make up her mind about paint colors , she picked the paint and the painters were there , she then changed her mind , she ate the paint cost , and had to pay for the painters for the day .

No repairs, painting, hanging shelves, nothing should ever be done by a tenant except hang a picture and only then with your preapproval.
