Renovation Tips for your First Rental Property!
Renovating your Property
- This will be a rental! BUY/HOLD property!
- Renovations don’t need to be luxurious.
- Don’t over do renovations for area!
- Keep costs down but make sure it looks nice and clean and will appeal to an average renter.
Renovation Tips
PAINT
- Get cheap paint
- White or Light greys (neutral tones)
- Paint everywhere for a fresh/clean look
- "Oops" Paint from hardware store will be discounted
Flooring
- Buy inexpensive laminate flooring
- Luxury Vinyl Plank
- NOT real or engineered hardwood (no need for a rental)
Light Fixtures
- Relatively Cheap
- Don't redo electrical and put in can lights
- put in a "statement" fixture in kitchen/living/dining area
Kitchen
- Look at resurfacing or painting cabinets
- Paint cabinets white or grey
- Appliances
- Buy ding and dent or open box!
- Counter tops, sometimes a clean countertop is a nice countertop.
- Don't immediately replace for granite if in good shape.
- Cheaper option could be wood or wood veneer countertops.
- A nice backsplash will distract from an older countertop
Bathroom
- Flooring, cheap laminate or vinyl flooring or a tile
- Buy a cheap vanity online or from hardware store
Should be able to get done everything done for under 10K if it is a starter property (Smaller)
- If you live there for a year keep saving and slowly renovating and should be able
to complete renovations in 1 to 2 years!
- INSTANT EQUITY IN PROPERTY BECAUSE OF RENOVATIONS!!!!
