Hello, I’m pretty familiar with the tax liens regulations here in Alabama but I wanted to brush up on quieting the title.

As stated above brush up on the local city, county and state laws.

Maybe that math is a bit over your head but it is simple and actually you take usually 80% of the improvement and divided by x years (based on residential or commercial) to get the proper amount for the tax right offs and you still have so many more deductions, so let's not brush off that subject. 

We went into a unit, and I handed them paint brushes and a bucket of primer and told them to paint what they want wherever they wanted.

@Carol VenoliaPick yourself up, brush off the knees and get back to it!  

hi @Adam Eckhoff - if I'm in your shoes I would attend a couple of local investor meetups to really brush shoulders with and speak to other investors and vendors in the space. 

I live in an area with very large incomes, and low house prices compared to the rest of the country - there's dozens of cities and towns in Canada like this, so don't paint the market with a broad brush. 

The one thing I will do to my units to make them more attractive to tenants is I will spend a little bit extra to put in slightly (but not extravagantly) nicer finishes ... things like brushed nickle hardware instead of brass or chrome, laminate floors instead of carpets, etc. and keep my units in good condition ... therefore, even if I charge market rent it is a good deal since my units have slightly nicer finishes ... if I take pride in my units and they are in good locations, then I find it will attract quality tenants who will also take care of my units, and no they do not leave when I raise rents up to the max the market will bear.

You can use a brush, but you really need a HPLV detail sprayer.

Take your time, buy nice brushes and go for a 14 inch roller and this is fairly easy to do.
