You did not screen these tenants and don't really know their background outside what the seller told you who had motivation to paint a bright picture to sell. 

The answers to dog barking, leaves falling, parked cars, surveillance cameras, cutting down trees, paint spray on new car, paint peeling, loose boards in fence, dog barking, etc aren’t the answer.

Home had to be ripped down to the studs!

Calling someone an "employee," but putting them on 1099, and paying them the same as what W2 people with benefits get, is a huge rip-off that many Fortune 500s, as well as smaller outfits, perpetuate.

My 2 cents as a contractor and someone who has worked for a cabinet maker in the past...Color shouldn't matter that much as long as you're doing paint-grade cabinets and using a good quality paint.

Minor repairs, coat of paint and you are ready to go.

This was the only disappointment, but I’m obviously not complaining.After completing that $5k of work - paint, floors in one room, new appliances in one unit - we rented out the property and it’s currently fully occupied.

We agreed & he has since painted all 4 bedrooms at their cost after my wife & his wife approved the colors. 

I did a full cosmetic rehab on this property---all new paint, flooring, kitchen, bathroom, hardware, etc.
