I’m picturing a little path leading down to it and maybe a tire swing?

The best bet for most people who aren’t experts, in the long run, is to stay away from trying to learn plumbing, or electrical, or tile work for the first time on your income property.Go ahead and paint.

But leave the big things to an expert..The last thing Scott wants you to think about for your future income property is space planning.He sometimes sees people eliminate things like a laundry room, or a dishwasher in a space to create more room or to save money on having to invest in those appliances.

Sure, you might not be able to charge a whole lot more for having those things, but it all goes back to what Scott told us last time: Income properties are still homes.Having these conveniences available for your future tenants will get your place rented a whole lot quicker and it will keep good renters around for the long run.

It’s a win/win situation!.
