I agree with the others-get them to clean it up and increase your rent with an updated lease.

Consider updating the photos to include different angles or lighting, or even adding a virtual tour to give potential renters a more immersive experience.

For larger projects we also try to send 1-2 in-process update videos. 

Please give me your updates on the webinars.

Even with tighter spreads, I’m seeing investors find momentum by focusing on flips that check these boxes:- Strong ARV supported by comps- Cosmetic rehabs (paint, floors, landscaping) that add quick value- Areas with high buyer demand but low updated inventoryFor those flipping in today’s market:- How are you keeping projects profitable as costs shift?

Make sure it has curb appeal, the necessary interior updates, and features that draw potential buyers in.

The opportunity: Tighten operations around three levers—Cost, Time, and Revenue—while de-risking each flip with disciplined underwriting and execution.1) Cost: Tame Labor & Materials Without Gutting QualityValue-engineer the scopePrioritize visible ROI items: paint, flooring, lighting, curb appeal, kitchens/baths (surface updates > layout changes).Replace, don’t relocate: keep plumbing and electrical in place when possible.Use finish tiers (Economy / Mid / Premium) per neighborhood comp set; avoid over-improvement.Lock pricing earlyGet three-bid packages per trade with identical scopes, photos, and SKUs.Negotiate 30–60 day price locks on materials; ask for bulk-buy or “contractor pack” discounts.Use allowances (e.g., $2.50/sf flooring) with pre-approved SKU lists to control change orders.Build a dependable labor benchMaintain a preferred-vendor roster (primary + backup) for each trade.Offer fast pay terms (e.g., net-7 on verified milestones) in exchange for pricing and priority.Test small jobs first; promote trades to your A-list only after on-time, on-budget performance twice.Standardize to reduce wasteCreate repeatable finish schedules (same trim profile, faucet line, paint palette) so crews work faster and leftovers are reusable.Pre-kit jobs: one delivery per room (box includes all hardware, fixtures, and consumables).Contracting disciplineUse fixed-scope, milestone-based contracts with:Progress draws tied to inspections/photosNo deposit or minimal mobilizationLien waivers at each drawDaily liquidated damages for missed deadlines (after grace period)Written change order policy with price + time impact before work proceeds2) Time: Move Faster to Reduce Carry and RiskFront-load planningWalk the property with all key trades before closing; finalize scope, bids, and schedule ahead of day 1.Pull permits early; choose scopes that avoid structural or major MEP reroutes when timelines matter.Sequencing & overlapSchedule parallel workstreams (e.g., exterior/landscaping while interior demo proceeds).Use a Gantt chart (even a simple spreadsheet) to track trade start/finish, dependencies, and buffers.Daily control15-minute stand-up with GC or project lead each morning (photos + punch list).Two inspections/week: one quality, one progress vs. schedule.Keep critical spares on hand (breakers, valves, GFCIs, common trim, extra boxes of flooring).Tech + templatesSimple tools (Google Drive + shared photo folders, or apps like Buildertrend/Jobber) for scope sheets, punch lists, and photo proof.Use QR codes in rooms linking to the finish schedule for fewer “what goes here?”

After replacing the electric panel, painting, updating the kitchen, treating for termites and removing the popcorn ceiling i’m pretty sure we have about $50,000 or more in equity currently.

Transparency & CommunicationAsk how often you’ll receive updates (monthly reports, maintenance logs, rent rolls).Confirm that they have an accessible point of contact, not just a generic inbox.Watch for vague answers around communication frequency or reporting access.2.
