@Perry IvyWe have a few converted older properties (Second Empire / Victorian) in which panels were placed in kitchens, hallways and living rooms at the time the building was converted (or when the electrical was updated).One of the things we do in these cases is install a chalkboard/whiteboard/corkboard over them - a plywood box 1 - 2" deep with a  piano hinged door (which is the chalkboard/whiteboard/corkboard).You can purchase both magnetic primer and chalkboard or whiteboard paint ... a little pricy, but a little goes a long way.  

Throw down some new flooring and paint and re-sale or rent?

In one of my class B-/C+ rentals, 1 small dog turned into 5 dogs and 2 cats, which then turned into all new carpets and paint (which were brand new when they moved in) ... never again.

And all with no renovations other then paint carpet etc.

So I used this guy to paint my garage over the summer and he was great.

I put in a new roof, redid the floors, painted, did yard work, window treatments, removed asbestos in the garage.I had the place reappraised it was now worth 335k. 

It's a short saleThe 2nd bath has a shower and no tub(family neighborhood)Small kitchen(but in great shape)Some crazy paint jobsThe double vainity in the master bath isn't actually in the bathroom.

Preference: If you own, you can paint the walls whatever color you want, change the carpet, renovate to your hearts desire.

It has to be in liveable condition but I don't mind putting new paint on the walls.
