That light is going to go, don’t worry :)The scope of work is pretty much everything: kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, gutters, deck, fencing etc…, except for most of the windows and walls/drywall, which I was able to save (except for the front unit, which had some rough popcorn ceiling).The kitchen should look something like this render:There wasn’t room for a dishwasher and what I felt was enough cabinet space so I’m going without for the first time in one of these smaller units.

Pretty much worthless.

It's pretty rare I see any that is super easy and the cash just keeps rolling in. 

Depending on the opportunity type and the licenses you have, that will either be pretty hard or really hard. 

You may have misjudged some numbers, but paying $700 a month to own an appreciating asset is pretty good.
