Account Closed  not sure about the cars.... many folks living in the hood drive Cadillacs and Mercedes.When I lived in Palo Alto those folks drove used Camry's and maybe up graded to Subaru'sAnd we know Palo Alto is no slum  ( E PA) is rougher but ... cars I don't think is a great indicator of RE values.... :)Most big money in the RE bizz is buying the in the path of progress... of course land in the path of progress has no cash flow... but once they cook off there can be some pretty huge upside.... learned that one from experience

There are what are called cosmetic upgrades such as new flooring whether it be wood floor , new carpeting , new cabinets, and a paint job and general cleaning which may involve some landscaping work.

Once they do not pay they have broken the lease or month to month contract either way.If they dont pay you will still have to serve them with notice to pay or leave and then evict if they dont leave, even with a month to month. 

The hours are broken down into two segments, a 60 hour segment and a 36 hour segment.

Our hoa neighborhood has some wild kids, and recently our window was broken by one of their balls.

I found all the cabinetry in the garage along with granite but a few pieces of the granite were broken during removal. 

I would also see if your properties might qualify for any government grants for upgrades. 

This is why people like me don't respond to certain queries - those who don't treat this as a business have broken fundamentals, while those who do (and have common sense) are worth talking to.I sometimes participate on here (this forum) when I have leisure time and get tired of reading poor advice (of which there is plenty) from inexperienced people dispensing their wisdom (especially questions about LLCs and land trusts) or gurus screwing others over (I was instrumental - as documented on here by the victim - in their recovery of tens of thousands of dollars).  

But right after buying it, I really need few months to renovate as it is really old and need upgrade. 

My question is in regards to factoring in the cost to upgrade a new bathroom even if the bathroom has the basic of basic necessities??
