I’m closing on a quad next week. Each unit has a fireplace but none of the wood burning fireplaces are functional.
Have other investors found that there is great value in having functional fireplaces? I’m just wonde...

I'm looking at a grade B SFR that has a masonry wood burning fireplace in the main living room. It's fully functional, has a beautiful mantel and glass doors and is really attractive, but it has me concerned. I REALLY...

I'm rehabbing my latest house in Florida, first one with a fireplace.

So I have a question for all of you seasoned landlords. My wife and I have differing opinions on this, so we decided that BP will be our answer.

I was hoping to get a little discussion going on what to do with the brick fireplace I have in the pic below. My fiance had a great idea to whitewash it or paint it a lighter color. I hadn't originally planned on...

What would you do with this fireplace? I am not fond of the stone and want to do a more updated stone/tile with more contrasting colors, this one seems very dull to me. My husband on the other hand thinks it will b...
