I think you're confusing the quantity of items with curb appeal.

The 70% rule is a good starting point, but also factor in local market trends and high-ROI upgrades like kitchen and bathroom updates, modern flooring, and curb appeal.

Some trash companies have a service for an extra charge where they will wheel it out to the curb, because handicapped and the elderly often can’t do it.

Love the curb appeal.

The cleanout is about 10-15 feet from the curb, but they had to snake 70 feet, suggesting a potential city sewer issue.The plumber mentioned that if I report this to the city, they will likely request a secondary cleanout closer to the curb, which I would have to install at my expense (a costly job).

We added value by updating the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring, while also improving the property's curb appeal.

By investing in a high-quality $109,106 renovation, we modernized the home, improved curb appeal, and upgraded key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms.

By focusing on cost-effective improvements, investors can significantly enhance property value.By first Identifying which renovations offer the highest ROI—typically kitchens, bathrooms, and curb appeal. 

That approach makes a lot of sense—focusing on key value-adds like bathrooms, curb appeal, and open layouts can really improve returns.

Curb appeal is also very important.
