Mostly cosmetic work including flooring, paint, & cabinetry.

I liked that it was going to be mainly a cosmetic rehab - carpet, LVP flooring, painting, some electric, light plumbing, and refinished countertops.

These loans can be a bit tedious with paperwork for large rehabs, but if they are small and cosmetic it shouldn't be too bad.

Regular contractors won't do 203k because they have to front the money each quarter payment before they get paid. 203k loan is great because you can do cosmetic fixes or a full redo and because you have the help of an estimator, contractor as a new investor, you are more protected than just going out and trying to BRRRR on your own.

We purchased a property for $299k that needed a $30k cosmetic renovation.

I know the first thing I look at before booking on vrbo or airbnb is recent reviewsAre you able to pivot and sell this place (would a light cosmetic rehab help you sell for more?

We had found this property for a great price and needed mostly cosmetic fixes- had great bones.

Raise the rent to cover the cost of any unnecessary/cosmetic repairs required by the inspectors.

After that and some new plumbing, HVAC and siding it was a straight forward cosmetic flip.
