They increase their life style to use all their money and think it is your fault they can not afford to move to someplace similar.

My current dilemma concerns the quality vs. style vs. cost of the kitchen remodel. 

Master is a "loft" style and open on the second floor.

How much should we know about the physical aspect to real estate such as the structure, carpeting, walls, plumbing, style, etc. before investing?

We are out of state so we are using Property Management. 2 Bedroom, 1 bath, great storage, 1000 sq feet, could probably get it for $55,000.It's a 3rd floor unit in a development with maybe 10, apartment style, buildings. 

It was draining and not a sustainable life style.

You want to draw buyers in with materials that are neutral but ultimately in style.

While brass, copper and black have had their moments and will probably be in style again sometime in the future they are trendy and will date your remodel. 

I would recommend a more professional style (I can message you details). 2.

I only do open house style....IF you decide to do individual showing you need to have a formal and efficient plan to deal with no shows.....Such as...... tenant is required to text or call 1 hour before showing appointment to confirm....some do 30 min...... or you don't go over there.Or before you schedule the showing, the tenant has to submit an application including the feeIndividual showing have a high rate of no shows or last minute cancellations......so be prepared if that's you plan.
