@Rick Alvi I wrote a post on my website/blog about this last year and created a pretty cool visual.

The dark stain--which looks great on the deck--makes them visually go away, even given the contrast against the white siding.I would do the exact same treatment on the back porch, with one railing and newel post.Stair builders or maybe even a local cabinet shop would be your source, and shouldn't be expensive at all, since it's all stock materials.

Talk is cheap - look at his credentials before investing in a mentor.The problem with Washington investors coming to Baltimore - is that they pay too much because they compare DC prices with Baltimore values.Be smart about what you do and who you work with - you can look at listed real estate but your best deal is going to come from dealing directly with sellers.Also remember creative financing techniques - nothing down deals - Control and Roll System - Delayed Settlements - Hybrid offers - and don't forget owner assisted financing and make sure you always ask for a principal mortgage.Have fun - make full disclosures and make sure you understand the laws related to mortgage foreclosures - fail to do this and you may have a paid vacation to the Gray Bar Motel (a nice little room with one small window and the food is free, but the space is restricted).Remember your goal should be CASH FLOW or EQUITY - forget the emotional appeal - it is all about numbers - understand them and you'll do well in Charm City.Charles Parrish

Ramp and curb appeal 2.

As its super nice to get a free site from our broker it's just not "prettified" or modern and I need something more appealing.  

Perhaps since you're replacing the roof you could put a skylight in over the "bonus room" and increase the appeal...?

If that does not materialize, turnkey seems to have an appeal too.
