Now my sweet spot is bringing the exterior up to current park standards and cleaning and getting the interior "ready for rehab".

In our office, we try to get our homes to a "hotel clean" or "hospital clean" condition.

Your first 2 flips you called HD & Lowes for cabinetry & flooring.

You just can't clean that accumulated lint out completely!  

So let them know if the vinyl flooring or whatever is damaged, that it's fair for them to pay to fix it.For a "long term" tenant I'd let them do it and I'd figure out someplace to store my refrigerator. 

One 2/1 is pending now with the same sq footage and floor plan, but on the top floor with vaulted ceiling (which makes the place feel bigger and gives much more sunlight). 

If something like that happens I am usually standing in some 3rd floor corner office to make things happen. 

Fresh and clean with large windows and great natural light with new carpet and paint, nice remodeled bathrooms, kitchen and finished basement with extra bedroom and bathroom.
