FYI - Spoke to RE Agent about whether it was worthwhile to do the uneven subdivision with GF option. He indicated that an even subdivision would be a better result for capital appreciation. Guess I'll see if capital appreciation or rental income is more important when the time comes. Sanj...

Yes a paint job and a good clean would go a long way. Kitchen and bathrooms are functional but dated.. thankfully not orange though! Having said that, the bathrooms are salmon pink. :eek: Evan1875, I like your thinking. May be a while though.
