what do you think? (2b1.5b)

I just recently finished a renovation on my townhouse. it is a 2 bedroom 1.5 bathroom, has a carport for 2 vehicles. HOA, but they deal with yard, exterior, garbage. I had talked with an agent on the value and seems to be $250,000. it's not bad for $175,000 purchase. I am currently in the process on renting the unit out. but, wanted to see what everyone thinks about the renovation. the appliances are new (got a deal for the dryer and stove). dishwasher is not new, but only used once. I had the back splash re-done in the kitchen, light replaced in kitchen, epoxy the countertop, painted the entire inside, replaced the doors/hinges/handles, replaced the carpets to the stairs/2 bedrooms, replaced all ceiling lights and ceiling fan, replaced the water heater (old one was way out of date, also had my brother help me with that since he is in hvac), kitchen sink/faucet, bathroom mirrors, resurfaced the bath tub. I think that is all that I had done. Will need to so the yard a bit, it needs a little clean up.

Looks nice. There is some misc things you could update like the countertops, cabinets are older style, light switch faceplates, any light fixtures that are older, etc. I don't think you need to though. It will rent out well as it is. After turnovers you can do more extensive upgrades but if you increased the value already you don't need to overdo it.
