@Jay Hinrichs , so you're saying we should invest and open a home improvement store :)

What did you budget for improvements to get it rented?

Working in the corporate world at improving business processes I see a lot of similarities between that and RE investors.

So any improvement that can help that way will be a benefit.

This is taken from Oregon's CCB website: "Oregon law requires anyone who works for compensation in any construction activity involving improvements to real property to be licensed with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB).

hi huyWould he takes less than 130 and is there anything you can do to improve the property?

Another issue is a tenant is still restricted to the use of property, making improvements and other aspects that require an owner to perform, like in contracting and obtaining building permits.

Your goals seem ambitious, I believe almost all rehabbers feel they improve the neighborhood and move onto the next challange.

Your time is too valuable looking for the next deal or improving systems to be changing batteries in a smoke alarm or unclogging a disposal.

Property improvements can be one thing that can be a win/win. 30 day notice??
