Tenant agrees not to do painting, wallpapering or structural modifications to the premises.

I don't want them painting (orange and purple are a bear to cover up later!)

The look can be a bit mid-century modern, which is very popular these days, but it blends ok with painted cabinets and older counters.

The home was perfect upon move in, now it appears all carpet will need replaced, all walls painted, serious deep cleaning everywhere(It's disgusting), appliances have not been cleaned ever, kitchen cabinets may need refinished, mini blinds replaced, etc.

It's listed at $69,900It's valued at $90,690It's a 4br1ba, 1500 sqft. home with an adjacent lot included with a dbl garage and a single garage both detached.Taxes are $1,290 good neighborhood-----Needs all appliances stove/fridge/washer/dryerA couple windows in one of the bedroom need replacedNeeds new paint and carpets throughoutHas a patch missing on the garage roofNeeds a new sink in kitchen (it's leaking)Has small mold spot on ceiling in bathroomThe basement has carpet on all the walls?

The first surprise may occur in a couple of years, when the first tenant moves out and the investor needs to spend 2k to get the property back into ready to rent condition (the cost of painting, re-carpeting, fixing dinged up kitchen cabinet doors, etc. adds up).

Thanks @Rich Ng, this is great, I love it: "So I take the original 14 day notice and at the bottom, draw a Sign______ Date _____ line."

Therefore, keep away from painted cabinet doors as they scratch in no time.

Up here for the price quoted you could install a small NG Generator that would eliminate all future power issues.  

In addition to keeping your rental dwellings clean, you need to frequently paint or otherwise maintain the exterior.
