Thanks, everyone, for the suggestions!

But I'd do my first suggestion instead. 

I don't always take her suggestions but it gives me a good idea on what to do.Kitchen Gut (medium grade SS appliances & Granite) - about $40/sq ftHVAC - Duct work - $2.50/sq ftHVAC - Compressor - $1,750 + ($1.00/sq ft)HVAC - Heating Unit - $2,000Those are quick estimate numbers that I have found to be good for North Texas.

If you paid top dollar you paid too much for a D property regardless of the quality of work.As already suggested since the job is done and it will not impact the rent I would leave it till it needs to be done again, which will likely be never.

I suggested the price to him, set my fee, and he brought the buyer.

I am currently considering the idea of getting certified as an appraiser, but would love to hear your suggestions.

@Alex Deacon, good suggestion, I'm actually thinking of counter offering that they take over lawn care which I currently pay.

I agree with the approach suggested by @Bjorn Ahlblad and @Mike Montana. 

When I called QB (intuit) they suggested reaching out to a certified QB professional from my local area.

Hey Mary,What I would suggest is taking out a mortgage first to get better financing for first time home buyers.
