I also rerouted downspouts into a new more modern drain instead of letting them drain into the foundation tiles.   

Since your units are brand new, that’s already a huge draw for renters, low maintenance and modern finishes are very appealing.

These are brand-new properties developed specifically for investors so they’re often tenant-ready, professionally managed, and designed for long-term durability and low maintenance.The advantage is you get the benefits of new construction (warranty, modern systems, high rents) without having to manage the build process yourself.

But the real solution is separate heat paid for by the tenants, such their is no duct sharing between units.

Like Bruce mentioned, there is a "solution path".

Hey Danilo,Great question — this one trips up a lot of flippers, especially when you’re doing “modern mid-range” finishes in a market full of time capsules.

Lockboxes have proven to be the most effective solution for me.

Not sustainably.Agents spend too much energy trying to predict what’s coming next —rates, inventory, buyer sentiment, seasonal shifts.But here’s the truth:The only market you can win in is the one you’re standing in.What worked last year may not work today.What might work six months from now is guesswork at best.You can’t build a business on forecasts and “maybes.”Top agents succeed because they focus on the present:• the buyers who are active now• the sellers who need solutions now• the strategies that work right now• the opportunities in front of them todayReal estate is not about calling the future.It’s about taking action in the present.No need to try and time the market.Start learning how to work WITH it.

This isn’t necessarily a dealbreaker, but I’d like to provide both myself (I plan to house hack) and my tenants with modern, comfortable living conditions.

Even if you don’t have an immediate solution, acknowledgment goes a long way.Avoiding these mistakes can make your property management smoother and far more profitable.Curious — what’s one mistake you’ve learned from managing rentals?
