hello peeps, what would you do in this situation,
have bought a house, needed gutters redone, a few major issues that were crucial but fairly labour intensive
I can spend $10k to do it up and then it basically falls into line with the surround original homes in average condition, rent will be approx $250 per week,
this area is a bit rough and hard to rent, a fully renoed one only fetches $260 per week,
that being said, I can repalce light fixtures, polish fbs, new kitchen for an extra $5-$6k, for a mere $10pw/$500pa increase, which is pretty poor value
however this may increase the value of the house by $15k odd, and then I can withdraw the equity out and go to my next project
what would you guys do? I dont intend to sell, but one side of me thinks, kill 2 birds with 1 stone and do it now, instead of again ina a few years down the track, by doing the reno, I can get extra equity out, but the ROI for rent increase is low
