I used that company to rebuild a deck for me at my other rental and was happy with the quality for the price.

@John Underwoodyes. but my main business is to buy cashflowinf SFR between $120-160k and use the brrrr method.

In my opinion complete quality renovation work but try to get it done asap.

Additionally, I negotiated that the seller do a new exterior paint job ($20k), $6,500 in landscaping, and $5,700 in deck work to transform the exterior to attract new quality tenants.

A $50K house is not going to be in a nice area or attract quality tenants.

People will argue the pros and cons of this method, but it's the most important element of the business.

Having grown up in Willimantic (you'll laugh if you know the area), I wouldn't quite classify it a slum, but definitely not my ideal place to raise a family.My question is this: I am highly interested in the BRRRR method, and there are several multifamily properties in the "slums" that I am interested in.

Inspector could also not access attic space to verify quality of sheathing and venting.

It certainly seems like there are a lot of different methods in managing a property 

We spent a little more then usual because we wanted the finished product to be hi quality and we spent on nicer finishes, design and staging.
