Painted 100% of the interior and exterior window trim, replaced the front door, added tile floors in the bathroom and kitchen, painted bathroom vanity and replaced all fixtures, put in new quartz countertops on original cabinets, all new light fixtures, door knobs and handles throughout.

On the flip side of the coin, unemployment is basically zero as is housing inventory; so, that's not a fact pattern that would drive a crash in the short term. 

In order to fix it, it is likely the contractor is going to suggest everything from digging down and installing drain tiles, sump pump, membrane wrap around the foundation.

The house will need the ceilings finished, new paint, and possibly updated tile.

Not returning phone calls or emails is another prominent feature of this tenancy so I sort of got stuck in this pattern but the rent does get paid late.

The house is older and needed basic upgrades like appliances, paint, tile, etc.

The pattern is the same nationwide. 

Added tile to the kitchen and main hall.

I spent $550 with Stanley Steamer to deep clean and deodorize the carpets and deep clean all of the tile surfaces (mostly the kitchen and back hall area that smelled horribly of dog urine).
