@Mike Duran thank you for the input, it is indeed very helpful and I'm thinking about this technique now. However, how do arrange what goes first? how about when you need to knock (none-load-bearing-wall) a wall? do you just have a GC does?
Also, do you find Grossmans cheaper than HomeDepot or Lowes? Anywhere you were able to get cheap decent Kitchen Cabinets?
you mentioned 20K or less. does that include appliances?

@Nathan Gesner thanks for the reply. That is from the Tenant perspective. I was looking for the letter as a Landlord to request the rent increase for a tenant. Just a sample and what folks really mention in order for BHA to consider the increase.

@Maureen F. Your point if very good and I couldn't agree more with you...
it will extend to the floor/ceiling. most likely replacing the baseboard. They are old good quality good (i'm preserving them for re-purposing them at some point, time-consuming to refinish them now). However, for now, I will go with new baseboard.

@Maureen F. we are not replacing all the dry walls, we will go over some of them with new dry walls since we don't want to disrupt the existing walls. It will make it look nicer.
@Dan Weber I'm well aware of this code and since this is just one apartment (not everything is touched), then that is approximately 33% of the building which is less than 50% but will make sure we don't get caught up with that right now.
Thank you, guys!
