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.

Starting out I would suggest simple rehabs of paint and carpet to start.

You take it from where ever you can get it, Owners paying bills will paint a rosy picture without hard copies of bills.

Sure, there'll be subs that automatically assume that they can rip you off, because you're a woman and then there'll be seller,  who'll automatically let their guard down easier, because you're a woman.

Maybe even market it below normal rent value 9but still getting your $400/m) and let them clean and paint.
