I'd go with a lighter flooring and backsplash as the darker finish on the cabinets will make the room look darker. 

Took the majority advice here and went with patio idea.900 pavers later and this is getting close to being finished.

Inspections are still taking place- so finishing up our roughs.- I cover water and gas for heat, so I am expecting those expenses to be a bit higher as tenants shelter in place.

Such as garage, finished basement, sq ft.

Finished the cleaning 95% today , I have about 18 hours into it including demo of cabinets .

No contractors so trying to finish as much as I can 

Haven't been on here for a while, but here's how it shook out:HML gave me an extension, I switched RE Agents, found a buyer, Angel Investor came in with the cash to finish the project and everyone got their money back (except me, I took the L as punishment so I would never forget my mistakes).

I also just want to be finished with them and just give them tge entire deposit back, but I feel so taken advantage of by them.

I’ve always been a stock market guy so I just finished the dhandho investor by mohnish pabrai.

I would also need to request that he does the inspections so that I can finish up the rehabs.
