Now, I don't really like medians so much, means/averages are a much better statistic, I find (but everyone uses medians, so here we are).

U of A plans to grow student population by 50% by 2022 I forget who put the specific statistics of this in a forum post but if you do a search I am sure it will come up.

Redid the hardwood floors, painted inside and out, cleaned up the landscaping, put a metal roof on the carport (my husband did it himself with the help of my son because it was a flat roof!)

While this is typically targeted towards Millennials, it is a statistic that has increased across the board.

There seem to be all sorts of dimensions to a property, from the kitchen, to plumbing, to landscaping, and I want to try my best to ensure that I'm focusing on doing what is needed to prepare the property for rental.

redid the roof and landscaping.

My suggestion would be to rent for a while to acquaint yourself with the Phoenix landscape. 

@Charles Mitchell Don't forget the RE attorney, Title person(s), Money people, contractors and mentors in the area to help you with the landscape.

Installed gutters and cleaned up the landscaping.
