Or paint.

Sorry, I don't buy it...As for 7 days of vacancy, perhaps that's possible for a very experienced landlord who doesn't mind the hassle of trying to do showings before the existing tenant leaves and who can do a make-ready (paint, carpet, etc) in just a couple day. 

You may not be able to get a way with this broad, but I'd encourage you to not paint yourself into a box by trying to outline every criteria.

One will be trashed, its my worst one, another was not finished when folks moved in and I have to gut the kitchen including flooring due to a water leak in a wall, the other is paint , faucets, and some serious cleaning.

They are older homes, but so much character...and lead paint! 

I see mistakes as paying for an education a $1000 paint mistake is like one college class not a big deal in the big picture.

We do enough business with Home Depot, our flooring suppliers, paint suppliers, etc. that we get heavy discounts on everything else, but the turf just hasn't been cost effective thus far.I've done and arranged installs in Australia before, and while it's not my favorite thing to do, I've seen some million dollar homes around that have put it in and I must say, it really gives the house great curb appeal and pops more that other others in the street.

D might be Detroit.For commercial hospitality (motel chain), i have done 2500/room, flooring and granite were owner supplied. scope was interior painting, r&r flooring, inst granite, change wallplates, install tv and brackets, minor electrical and minor plumbing. the budget is fine.

Once you get use to this, you just clean it up, paint, and rent it out again. 

The first two need to be scraped and painted and could use new windows as well.
