Because paint is one of those things that needs to get done more often with tenants than it does for owners (we're talking function here, not staying vogue), I would suggest not painting anything.

The largest driver of tenants is area.

Its not going away anytime soon but just as every other market the first in profit the largest.

The result, not surprisingly, was the creation of one of the largest generations (my generation) of spoiled brats in human history. 

If you are only using it for one of those functions then you are only getting a portion of what you are paying for.This isn't legal advice, just my opinion as a real estate investor.

Obviously you would replace or repair what isnt working but what about outdated things that are still functional?

A properly run business can not function in this manner but, aside from the concept of real estate  investing being a business, most prefer not to see it that way. 

You need to put the test ad on Craiglist and the largest metro newspaper (in this case Kalamazoo) in the "mobile homes for rent" section of the classifieds in the paper, with the name of the city in all-caps, the monthly home rental amount (take your lot rent and add $400) and a Google disposable number that tracks all calls in.
