Hi, we are closing on an out-of-state property that we want to use as our first Airbnb. And we're thinking, from an investor's perspective, what kind of improvements would give us the most bang for our buck.

The house is actually in a pretty good shape just has a bit outdated style (see photos attached). 

So far we just wanted to repaint the walls, change the living room floor from carpet to vinyl, and repaint the kitchen cabinets.

However, we are not sure if that's enough to attract good tenants (for a 3 bed, 2 bath detached home with a pool in Kissimmee area), or should we spend more time and update the countertop (not sure how it's important for STR), kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, etc..

Since we are out-of-state investors, the less amount of effort and money we can spend to get similar results in term of rentals, the better for us. So we are trying get in idea what is must have and what is just good to have.

Would appreciate any advice, thank you!
