My dad is a contractor so i don’t understand these amounts of money people are talking for cabinets etc..maybe it’s my area compared to the coastal areas...and tile is always a good investment...it’s waterproof if done professionally and durable...another thing I would do in an older house that possibly has hardwood floors...sand and stain the old wood floors especially if they’re oak cuz they’re so hard to damage...durability with rentals...cuz renters have no idea how much it costs to keep up a rental and frankly they don’t care...stupid and selfish way to think as renters but I’ve seen a rental have to be totally redone after only 3 months of tenants being there...they destroy rentals

@davidlindgren7605 4 года назад

@@w8what575 I agree and disagree about the oak floors, but it only makes sense to sand and refinish them if the property is in a decent enough neighborhood that it will attract good enough tenants who will appreciate them and will hopefully not abuse them. For locations that have gone downhill since originally constructed, you're better off just painting the wood floors or installing laminate flooring.

@roberterisman766 3 года назад

Painting original hardwood floors??? You seriously need smacked for saying that. I restore original hardwood floors to their natural beauty and it does not cost a lot for my customers to have this done. If you really want to go cheap then just do what's called a "screen and recoat". Rent a stand up floor sander/buffer buy the 100 grit screens to take off a very thin layer of the clear coat without taking it down to bare wood, clean with mineral spirits, and apply a layer of floor urethane. Result is fresh, clean, even sheen, original hardwood floors. Now with the new layer the protection will last another 20 years

@NoRoads2AllRoads 4 года назад

Here's a pro for you Kevin. Do not put weed barrier down. It's a pain. Why? Sure it keeps weeds at bay, however once you add any sort of mulch, and the mulch starts decomposing, weeds start growing on that layer above the weed barrier. Best to do, is just use cardboard (use those Amazon boxes) where it keeps weeds at bay for a long time but it decomposes. Once weeds start growing again, just put other layer of cardboard on top of old mulch or whatever and add new.

@Burritosarebetterthantacos 4 года назад

I thought the exact same thing. The fabric is NOOB 100%.

@RussellBallestrini 4 года назад

Yeah, weed barrier is the worst, just get a thicker layer of mulch. Weed barrier prevents worms and other decomposers from getting to the surface. Cardboard plus mulch to hide cardboard.

@alanswanson1952 4 года назад

@@kortdarth yes mulch the seeds come from the top not the bottom. Make sure the mulch is six inches thick then the weeds won't be able to take root

@Badenhawk 4 года назад

Even pro-er pro tip: sometimes the parks dept will give you mulch for free from the trees they have to shred up. Just laid down 4 pickup loads between my sidewalk and curb on the corner of my house. Looks great, No more grass, no more mowing, more time to play video games lol. And when it settles and I need more, I can just go get more for free.

My experience is that the cheap $20 exterior lights are a waste, especially if exposed to sunlight. They yellow, warp and look terrible in a year. The $30 or even $40 ones break-even in looks and saved labor in about 3 years.

@Capthrax1 4 года назад

ive used 20$ ones from home depot at a property i worked at and they were black cast (zink?) material with led light nothing plastic on them, even the led lens was glass. We calced the medium life of the led to some 15 years. There are quite a bit of stuff you can get cheap that adds value and has a reasonable life. When renting your not looking for everything to last forever. most owners refresh the property every 20 -30 years depending on location. Using a refinish company can be a great bandaid for kitchen and bathrooms, though replacing a bath or kitchen sink is pretty cheap and takes less than a hour to remove the old one and put the new one in

In Texas most HOA's will not let you paint the fence... some may not let you repair the roof... if you do it on the down low and the roof matches you may get away with it if a nearby home owner doesn't get too nosy. If you repair the fence with a new picket here and there can't paint due to HOA... it looks terrible and in some cases the HOA may levy fines anyway. In terms of windows -- single pane, dual pane in texas won't make much difference on your AC bill... especially if your AC is an old energy hog. In Katy, Texas (west Houston suburb we run our AC's upwards of 2300 hours a year at 75 degree set point, lower than than and you could be looking at 3000 hours. -- Renters are known to leave places they aren't comfortable.) Comfort is not only about temperature, it's also what you pay for that comfort. Inefficient AC doesn't spell anything good for a landlord. Long term rentals without turnover is the most profitable thing when it comes to rental real estate.

Couldn't agree with you more Kevin. Just like I said in the beginning of his project: "Matt's not mentally capable of doing this type of project". And that's not me saying he's stupid. That's just me understanding what he's used to in budgets and him mentally and physically not being able to put lower cost (I said 'cost' not 'quality' here people) stuff into his rental. Honestly, if Matt set out to remodel 10 homes into rentals, he would more likely than not go bankrupt somewhere into the 4th door because his rental income would never make the payments. Then he would have to sell all of them at a loss. That being said, in his most recent "Real Remodel" video relative to this comment, he did take my advice and mention that he was no longer doing that series as if it were on a "middle income" budget. I think (at least I hope) he realizes at this point that his 70's remodel is not what a person would do if they where remodeling it to be a rental. Also, because he came out and admitted this, I think his 70's remodel series is now a valid series for what to do to an older home if you want it to turn out "high end" and live in it yourself.

The problem with old roofs is the insurance with roof exclusion nobody wants to give you coverage for if it doesn't meet their criteria.

@hommedetowne4253 3 года назад

Which is why Americans have been ripped off for 40 years with the roofs, when they start using asphalt based dimensional roofing. if you put tile on, or a metal roof, or slate, it will last over 100 years. Because so few do it anymore it's become so expensive in america, but it used to be a lot cheaper. BUT even atilyl Metal roofing is considerably cheaper than tile and slate however, it lasts almost as long if maintained. And insurance companies love it. it's fireproof, which is a plus in an area like California that gets wildfires. If you have inverse land in the metal roof it doesn't burn, now does it?

13:40 this is a great point. My mom has lost so much money remodeling. about 5 years ago she was getting ready to sell her house, she re did the kitchen then bought a huge Fridge that didn't open all the way had to redo that door opening. then retiled the foyer and a bunch of other stuff and she says I lost about 15k because of stuff you couldn't see. yeah no same thing with her 2 trailers in Phoenix. but really she likes doing stuff. now mind you she does the work all her self or she'll get friends or me to do stuff.

@cdx873v 4 года назад

Awesome video. What about putting in new appliances? Like if you have a 5 apartment building. If you put in a dishwasher, the tenant will use less hot water and they will pay for the electricity it uses. Same with a washer and dryer. I guess it depends.

@hommedetowne4253 3 года назад

No, actually, he reminds me of a couple of my landlords from when I was younger. Way back in my twenties. Some of the coolest people to deal with. this is a straight shooting guy, he knows how to get stuff done and repaired, and maintain. He looks like the kind person who probably provides a nice decent and solid place to live without getting extraordinarily and stupidly fancy. I think this kid is probably a great landlord.

All of these are band aids on wounds that require stitches. 1. If the roof is failing then yes redo the whole roof, otherwise it will fail and your tenants will more than likely never check the attic to see the damage, then at $15k repair will end up costing $30k. 2. the fence- not fixing the termite problem and the fence will all look like the boards you replace in a year or 2. Either tear it completely out or fix the termite problem and replace the bad boards.

12:36 A proper detail or Auto body shop will buff that scratch out to the point you would hardly notice it for $50 to $100. You have to go outside most major cities or towns were the shop rate is lower. You most likely can wait on it. Thirty minutes to two hours depending on what they need to do. You will still see a slight line because you know it was there. Most people will never be able to see it unless you point it out. My bodyshop will have me in and out in under a hour with an appointment. 12:36

I bought a house in NC in 2009 for $106,000. 3bd/2bath around 1200 sq feet. I spend $5,200 on rehab in 2019 and sold it for $145,000. So Kevin is right on here. I painted the cabinets, reglazed the bathroom tile (it was pink) and painted the bathroom, installed a used double oven (to replace a built in oven/microwave from the 1970s) and light fixtures in the kitchen and bath (under $200) and upgrade the lighting in the dining room , and did some basic landscaping.
