seems like a lot of people just take the L and fill the vacancy. for what its worth he cleaned the place out pretty well and left it pretty much rentable with minor touch ups.

Turnkey properties or those that only need minor touch-ups tend to be a better fit for first-time investors.

I visit it twice a year to do maintenance, replace broken stuff, restock, touch up paint etc. 

The price of the unit is what is attractive with price of the property and the touch ups the property could pay its self off in 2-3 years Tops.

There's definitely some cosmetic touch up I'd like to do. 

We are looking for the egregious outliers that give our industry a bad name.I want to clarify what HawkAudit actually does, because I think there's a misunderstanding:We're NOT:- Questioning every line item- Using "AI estimates" to lowball contractors- Encouraging clients to nickel-and-dime on legitimate costs- Telling contractors what they should chargeWe ARE:- Identifying duplicate charges (like being billed twice for the same attic debris removal)- Flagging vague line items that could lead to scope disputes later ("touch-up entire unit" - what does that mean?)

See the photo below.We use eggshell sheen on the walls because we can touch up eggshell, and it does not show.

.- You close on December 10th- The property is in great shape and does not need any significant repairs- It only needs some paint touch-up and changing a couple of broken fixtures, which you do yourself- You spend the next week buying furniture, electronics and supplies and installing/arranging everything yourself- You also roll up your sleeves and scrub the toilets and sinks and appliances- You list it on AirBnB/VRBO and have your first guest for the 3 days of Christmas- You second guest rents it from December 28th through January 3rd.- You personally clean and restock the place between these two guestsCongrats!

From my experience, a basic turnover usually covers things like paint touch-ups, cleaning, minor repairs, and maybe a couple of appliance fixes.
