They are suing for lose toilet, no screen on a window, non-working outlet in bathroom, pests, hall light not working (light bulb needed to be replaced) and non-functioning smoke alarm (they never replaced the batteries).

Beyond scrubbing the walls + painting, pulling carpet, sanding and applying a few coats onto the hardwoods, do you all have any other tips/tricks or favourite things to do when re-habbing a unit - especially since she certainly smoked inside?

The cons that I had experienced was that the tenants would smoke marijuana and complain to have things fixed.

The local housing authority never inspects, they never cut the grass or do other maintenance, have numerous unauthorized occupants, and all have phones, smokes and no jobs. 

They have neck tats and chew tobacco in their sleep. 

I’ve seen too many out of state people get smoked on deals because “it’s a good deal on paper”.

Put over 100k into the full gut, pushing through the 203k rehab for 7 months during peak COVID and finally I was two weeks out from finishing/closing out the construction loan and renting out the first unit, then I had to hit the reset, gut the place and start over due to soot/severe smoke damage from a neighbor's house fire.

You probably already know the codes regarding smoke/CO2 detectors for the fire inspection (if you are representing the seller) so that is helpful.Do know that a broker will be looking for business from you from friends and family.You are in a good area but there are a lot of summer rentals, I don't know how much money there is in that.I don't know how handy you are or how much you might be willing to do but property management is a route to look at.

GC 149th to 170th and 4 blocks east and west of the concourse, Bruckner Blvd west of the highway is already smoking.
