Building a SFR and making it tenant proof?
If you could build a SFR from the ground up to use as a rental for college students what features would you absolutely build into the home or leave out of it? How would you make it long-term low maintenance and low hassle?
My first thoughts are:
-No exposed wood or painted surfaces on the exterior
-Coax cable outlets in every bedroom and living area
-LVT in the common areas and wet areas
-Concrete porch and patio instead of using a wood deck
-Upgraded toilets with large flush valves and high quality internals
-No bifold closet doors
-Basic cabinets and countertops
-A step up from Contractor grade for faucets
-Solid wood interior steps instead of carpeted
What am I forgetting? What do you disagree with and why? What have been your experiences?
I've been at this for a few years but I've never built and I'm always looking to improve!
