  • Clearly communicate the time expectation up front. The time that I was away from the family while working, or while the kids were too small to be in the dangerous area without supervision.
  • Take tons of pictures, because you’ll want to remember the insane amount of work it was
  • Have the right tools for the job: crowbar, full body paint suits for under the house.
  • Bluetooth speakers
  • 3m drywall sanding screens
  • Drywall sander
  • Texture
  • Paint
    • Bigger than a quarter to match color
    • Match the finish: matte vs flat vs satin vs semi gloss and gloss
      • Matte and flat - good for bedroom and living room
        • Pro- easy to touch up
        • Con- hold dirt and hard to clean because removes finish
      • Satin - perl like sheen when dry - high traffic area like kitchen and kid bathroom
        • Pro: stands up well to cleaning
        • Con: doesn’t hid imperfections
      • Semi gloss and gloss - reflects most light (bathroom and kitchen)
        • Pro: durable and scrubbable
        • Con: shows every single imperfection

We talk about:

  • Finding good renters
    • Do credit checks
    • Be patient it can take many showings to find the right renters
    • Use renter screening tools like cozy.co
  • Be extremely clear about expectations
    • Make sure to have a clause in the contract that requires a per day late fee over a set number of days. E.g. after 3 days, each day late costs $25/day
    • Be clear about pet cleaning fees
    • If they want an exception for an animal, try to get a good idea if they really need the pet or not. I wish we asked for some sort of proof that the animal was required otherwise we would’ve charged extra
  • Set up monthly or quarterly visits from a landscaper for the exterior
  • Being your own handyman
  • Other ways you can invest in long term properties
