For example, I have a property where the borrower (my entity in deed and I have a land contract) has unlicensed cars in the yard.

We do our container service and all of our 30 yard roll offs there.

-Probably putting some sort of nice tile/flooring down in both bathroomsOutside:-Removed chain link fence in back yard, will be putting up a nice wooden privacy fence.

Do you have a sign in the front yard too?  

They both said the couple next door leaves trash all over their front yard and the biggest problem is loud music and yelling at 2,3,4 in the morning.

And you can get some/all of that back when you file the tax return for that tax year with Rhode Island.Generally I think the price is OK for 2 units and you'll probably do OK but I think you might find this one a little more challenging over time than you might expect as that area (Chalkstone) is a bit rough in places, and the house having no front yard, while certainly easier for lawn mowing, also gives it a tougher feel.So I would be very careful with who you pick for the units as I think you're going to get a lot of "C" type prospective tenants coming through, and comparatively fewer "B" types who you really want.I think you'll probably do OK but I would plan to be pretty hands on for the first 3-6 months until you really make sure it's stabilized and you have decent tenants there.

I'm starting to see Zillow yard signs pop up along with Open Door and Offerpad.  

One beds with a yard and a washer and dryer turn over less frequently the the 2nd floor units with no yard and no washer and dryer.

Much like putting an ADT sticker on your door or a sign in the yard deters people.

The yard is a mess with broken down stuff and debris.
