If I had the money I would put a nice/cheap backsplash on the wall and a nice counter and cheap but nice tiles.

Hi; I generally built in Los Angeles SFV area and I see that many of the developers are putting wall display units (closets) with enclosed glass doors on the new construction homes that list for over $1.8M.They make a great focal point, and they can cost you about $5,000.00 to build one with no cooling system (just a display).I would like to hear your opinion in regards if it is worth the investment.

THe floors are messed up, walls are messed up, ceiling ...

The building itself is bare bones, just has the foundation, studs, etc.. minimal flooring, no walls or anything, so we get to build it ground up.

They patched the walls they cut open and even installed a panel behind the shower to allow access to piping.Now our water pressure is amazing!

I have my students have a co-signer, and because of the rents charged the deposit the kids put down is fairly large and should cover most damages that kids could realistically cause (like holes in walls, knocked down doors and the like). 

This means that YOUR truth is true because you experienced it, it may not be true for someone else... ie. what color is a rose?

There are huge multifamily properties that were built back in the days with thick walls, flat roofs and high ceiling.

Need to replace some dry wall / flooring in the bathroom, re-caulk the tub and install a glass door (to help prevent water damage), new toilet / vanity, and replace all the door knobs.
