How do I inspect and make repairs to rehab an occupied property?

I have a rental that currently has good tenants, but I am well overdue on maintenance on my property.  A few years ago, I needed cash out of my equity and my property appraised for 20k under market value.  I am trying to build back equity in my property before I have no choice but to make repairs as I feel they are around the corner.  How do I find out exactly what to fix and how do I make repairs when I have good tenants currently in the property?

Give tenants proper notice for an inspection and either thoroughly walk the house yourself and write down everything that needs to be done or bring someone that knows what to look for.

Then schedule repairs on days that work for both tenant and contractor. If they are good tenants then they should understand that these repairs will improve life inside these units.
