I 2nd what @James Wise said, but if I were going to do it (and I was not working with load bearing walls, I would focus on the back area and hall.It really comes down to what our close in competition is getting and what their offerings are.If you see a more tidy, rain protected look getting more money without sitting on the market too long, or you don't want to offer something too downscale (looking for a little better renter--hopefully)....maybe focus on the hall and back door.Some of the things I see that can could the possible rent a little better might be, door types, a rain roof, concrete patio and trash areas, a cellular door bell on the bottom, an outdoor modern looking pigtail florescent light (day lighter), the interior hall with commercial tread covers and lighting like the sun (day lighter) as well as a sturdy metal handrail or two, and a window at the top.But as James said above--beware of spending when you don't have to (but that's your call depending on your close in competition).Good Luck!

Hi Ladies, GentsI am looking to buy a multifamily (duplex, triplex or Quad) in the general University City area of Philadelphia. 

Rehab it from a 1970’s home to a modern living space What was the outcome?

Well, this lady was very persistent to see that her washing machine fit inside the trunk of her cadillac.

@Mark Doyle Buy "Modern Real Estate Practice in Illinois 7th edition" published by Dearborn.

At one point, there were 2 old ladies in one of the apartments, and they were so disruptive to the rest of us that had the landlord not offered them a version of "cash for keys", he would have lost 3 other good tenants.

I’ve seen a lot lately but the most popular ones are Antoine Martell, Thach Nguyen and some lady I forgot the name

You can thank Uncle Sam for the Lady Bug problem. 

Several carriers to look into that quote properties in the Detroit area are Foremost, Aegis, Tower Hill and American Modern.  

Funny though, I have been a Real Estate investor since 1986 and yet I still don't know some of the modern jingle...
