. - Other than those two items house is in good rental condition: new carpet, new appliances, granite in kitchen.

We don't want to do the messy calculation of cutting his portion out of deductions and depreciation, but we also prefer not to have to claim as income money he would pay as rent (especially because we would likely be providing that money).

The floors in the storage area need to be completed as well.The other two units were ok just messy because of tenants.

I would much rather spend my money where I know that the building will be in acceptable shape when i get it back in my possession and only have to spend a few days cleaning/painting/ and having new carpet installed if it needs replace.Besides groveport, obetz is anther good place normally and galloway a lot of the southern suburbs!

Some things (i.e. appliances, carpet, etc) could be 5 years.

The larger of the two units (where the previous owner lived for several years) is immaculate with good paint, new-ish bath and kitchen, nice carpet.

And these guys can do just about anything except lay carpet (and I do still need a sheet-rock guy).

Then, a certified crew must come in and remove the walls, carpet, cabinets, etc. before the residence can be re-rented.

That seems like it could get messy and he wants cash anyway.Whatever you decide, good luck!

Carpet cleaner got it out but at a $75 cost. 2) there was some small "dent" damage to a wall in a spare bedroom that we are certain was not there before.
