Would any of you paint it right away?

We use THEIR money give it a nice, fresh paint job and pocket the rest.

I got a quote with another house with the same floor plan - just to paint the house would be at least 5K because of special equipment needed.

Quite often the operators in this space will paint the exteriors, add a new sign, improve the leasing space, add dog parks or playgrounds, and then finish with some level of improvement in the interiors of each of the units.

They would get another letter in 60 days and we just wore their resistance down. 

I always recomend doing a cosmetic rehab (white quartz, white cabinets, bathroom vanity, add in unit laundry, paint) these can be done very affordably and often see a 50%+ increase in rents in the trendier house hack areas like avondale, logan square, albany park, etc.

Put it in the paint, as they say. 

Paint inside and out.

The house needs a new layer of paint (2-3 days job), carpet fixing and some cleaning.Thanks,Vivi
