Hi All,
Our 2 Bed apartment (IP) in Sydney's Inner West has a very basic kitchen. The temptation is to rip it out and put in an Ikea/flatpack kitchen to make it a bit more appealing before we look for the first tenants. Having said that, is it worth the effort?
I don't really have the time to get stuck into it at the moment due to significant work commitments (and I'm not particularly handy, so this isn't something I'd be able to do in my sleep). I suppose it's a question of either making time (or not sleeping) and doing it now, before we get the first tenants in or leaving it to do later on, when we may or may not be able to afford it.
I'll ask the local property managers and perhaps the agent that sold us the flat.
Are there hard and fast rules or is it really a case-by-case thing, depending on the costs, potential increase in rent etc.
Any thoughts or opinions?
Cheers,
Jaz
