👏 You’re absolutely right — there’s a big difference between luxury cookware and quality, complete cookware.

Any insight on the quality of finish I should do given BRRRR vs flip quality of paint/hardware/bathroom/kitchen are vastly different?

The lead volume per unit we get is down, however, each lead we get is more likely to lease than in previous years, so lead quality has actually gone up. 

For a GC/carpenter, the highest‑leverage play is value‑add buy‑and‑hold using BRRRR or a light hybrid: buy dated but solid properties, do targeted cosmetic/mechanical upgrades you can execute fast, place a quality tenant, then refinance and recycle capital .

You could also add an ERV (but that gets pricey) to bring in outside air to that unit as well.
