I would buy my own tile, flooring, cabinets.

Everyone i spoke to did not replace wire.just remember; all drywall 12 inches above flood line, cabinets, doors, flooring(tile should be fine), maybe the a/c equipment, window stools, baseboard, insulation, outlets (at least) and it took us 3 months with multiple fans and humidifiers running to get all the wood back to acceptable moisture content.

Tile, cabinets and counters are in good shape but dated.

You will pay for your own title insurance this way, but the other fees make it lmost a way, but more impoertantly you will get a more thorough tile search, and less exceptions ((things not covered) in the B Section under Exceptions in your title policy//committment.

I would attempt to collect the cost of the carpet and either wait till he moves out to replace it or put in a carpet substitute, tile, vinyl or laminate or install wile he is there.

For the major project I had them handle, replacing worn out carpet with Vinyl (Wood Patterned) Flooring I was quoted in writing $2,100 "out the door." 

I haven't observed any discernible pattern, seasonal or otherwise, when it comes to a lull in competition for even slightly below market or undervalued properties.The further you go outside of the core, the less appreciation you will get. 

Plus we get monthly cashflow while we get to help people get into homes that normally wouldn't qualify for a loan with the bank.We were able to get a many who lays tile for us in our properties and his family into a house where he is going to be able to own his own home that he otherwise wouldn't be able to do.  

Say my tenant broke something that I could easily fix myself like patch a large hole in the drywall or replace a few broken tiles.

There are foundation problem, a lot kf broken tile, ex and interor paint, instead of 2, there are only 1,5 garage. 12 light, but they all old.
