You need to determine whether these holes can be patched with spackle or if you need a drywall professionall to retexture the entire room (it might be easier to just do this and get it right the first time).A lot of drywall companies work with painters or may even have a paint guy on their staff.

Pool has been resurfaced.Sod: $1,550Paint: $4,400Tile: $4,700Pool Resurfacing: $2,000Next on the agenda is replacing interior doors and baseboard, installing cabinets and countertops, and getting the painter back to finish the trim, doors, pool deck, and garage floor.

They are charged more rent because the landlord is paying more for painters, plumbers, landscapers and handyman because they are being paid more. #5 regulation causes people to get out of the landlord business or never enter it.

My painter and my USPS worker also few years ago buying 1 mil house.

Been going over everything , called my painter last week and he tells me he is swamped and cant get there for 3 weeks .  

I guess they can hire a painter and window installer.

Rents ran $2,500/month back then and I was at least $5,000 ahead, counting money on hired painters for $1,500, spent 6 hours waiting for people showing up, collected 15 applications, 30 people showing up, reviewed the top 4, and didn't collect any application or credit checking fees.
