As @Igor Messano mentioned, you should visit/look at online nearby properties and see what they did in terms of aesthetic and functional design.

The cleanup before and after the gym keeps me approachable from an aesthetic perspective.  

Any amenity that gives off that type of aesthetic would probably be beneficial with regards to demand and revenue.

A lot of people have told us "just change carpet and paint"... but the reality is, people love a well designed place, and they love aesthetics!   

Hi Jennifer,From an aesthetic point of view, I agree with Michael, I would go with sod.

with a FHA loan, it's a BEAUTIFUL three unit house in a good neighborhood with a strong rental market, meets all my requirements (off street parking, good schools, quiet street, good aesthetics, etc,) and it's fully updated- needs nothing!

@Ben WilkinsI don't see why the property can't go up in value if it's in a good location based on fundamentals with low unemployment, nearby amenities, aesthetic appeal etc..

I want to know if certain properties are being fined for certain violations, that impact the common aesthetic of or community, and want to make sure they are not in violation of providing consistent treatment to all neighbors.

I finally came across a local company that had nice photos of their work that seemed to be along the line as the our aesthetic.

Seems surprising to me that the cost of installation for a traditional system in a new construction project would outweigh the extra cost of the mini-splits -- not to mention that the aesthetics of mini-splits are much worse (in my opinion) than a traditional system.
