- 4:19in
- 4:19the
- 4:19foot
- 4:19on
- 4:20the
- 4:20front
- 4:20end.
- 4:20Yeah,
- 4:21I
- 4:21see
- 4:21that
- 4:21happen
- 4:22a
- 4:22lot
- 4:22as
- 4:22well.
- 4:23Very
- 4:23much
- 4:23so.
- 4:24And
- 4:24you
- 4:24can't
- 4:24pay
- 4:24for
- 4:25pro
- 4:25forma
- 4:26value
- 4:26add.
- 4:27Right.
- 4:27You
- 4:27can't
- 4:28say,
- 4:28okay,
- 4:28the
- 4:28property
- 4:29should
- 4:29increase
- 4:30by
- 4:30this
- 4:30much.
- 4:31Should
- 4:31we
- 4:31do
- 4:31our
- 4:32job.
- 4:32And
- 4:32the
- 4:32seller's
- 4:33getting
- 4:33a
- 4:33premium
- 4:34for
- 4:34that
- 4:34for
- 4:34some
- 4:34reason,
- 4:35so.
- 4:35Absolutely
- 4:36agree.
- 4:36It's
- 4:36a
- 4:36very
- 4:37common
- 4:37mistake
- 4:37that
- 4:37I
- 4:38think
- 4:38we
- 4:38see.
- 4:38Well,
- 4:39there's
- 4:39a
- 4:39couple
- 4:39of
- 4:39things
- 4:40that
- 4:40you
- 4:40touched
- 4:40on.
- 4:41So
- 4:41the
- 4:41first
- 4:41one
- 4:41you
- 4:41mentioned
- 4:42was
- 4:42renovation,
- 4:43potentially
- 4:43going
- 4:43into
- 4:43a
- 4:44property
- 4:44that
- 4:44might
- 4:44need
- 4:44some
- 4:44improvement.
- 4:45So
- 4:46that's
- 4:46a
- 4:46pretty
- 4:47popular
- 4:47value
- 4:47strategy.
- 4:48Right.
- 4:48So
- 4:48a
- 4:48lot
- 4:48of
- 4:48people
- 4:49use
- 4:49that.
- 4:49They
- 4:49like
- 4:50updating
- 4:50the
- 4:50units
- 4:51with
- 4:51modern
- 4:51finishes.
- 4:52So
- 4:53one
- 4:53thing
- 4:53I
- 4:53always
- 4:54look
- 4:54at,
- 4:54you
- 4:54know,
- 4:54with
- 4:55any
- 4:55property
- 4:55in
- 4:56our
- 4:56society,
- 4:56styles
- 4:57change.
- 4:57Right?
- 4:58Right.
- 4:58So
- 4:59as
- 4:59a
- 4:59woman,
- 4:59you
- 4:59could
- 4:59probably
- 5:00speak
- 5:00better
- 5:00this
- 5:00than
- 5:00I
- 5:00could
- 5:01because
- 5:01I'm
- 5:01probably
- 5:02not
- 5:02as
- 5:02in
- 5:02tune
- 5:02with
- 5:02some
- 5:03of
- 5:03these
- 5:03things.
- 5:03But
- 5:03would
- 5:03you
- 5:04agree
- 5:04that
- 5:04styles
- 5:05change
- 5:05fairly
- 5:05frequently?
- 5:07I
- 5:07absolutely
- 5:08know
- 5:08of
- 5:08a
- 5:08property
- 5:09with
- 5:09some
- 5:09green
- 5:09carpets
- 5:10in
- 5:10it
- 5:10right
- 5:10now.
- 5:11I
- 5:11don't
- 5:11think
- 5:11those
- 5:11are
- 5:11too
- 5:11popular
- 5:12these
- 5:12days.
- 5:13Yeah,
- 5:13I
- 5:13have
- 5:13to
- 5:13admit
- 5:14I
- 5:14haven't
- 5:14seen
- 5:14those
- 5:15too
- 5:15much
- 5:15in
- 5:15the
- 5:15last
- 5:1640
- 5:16years,
- 5:16but
- 5:17probably
- 5:17a
- 5:17little
- 5:17bit
- 5:18dated,
- 5:18but
- 5:18definitely
- 5:19could
- 5:19be
- 5:19an
- 5:19opportunity
- 5:19there.
- 5:20You're
- 5:20right.
- 5:20Some
- 5:20people
- 5:20don't
- 5:21like
- 5:21green
- 5:21coin
- 5:21nowadays.
- 5:21It's
- 5:22strange.
- 5:22So
- 5:23one
- 5:23thing
- 5:23a
- 5:23lot
- 5:23of
- 5:23people
- 5:24do
- 5:24when
- 5:24they

- 5:26they're
- 5:26doing
- 5:26more
- 5:26cosmetic
- 5:27updates.
- 5:28And
- 5:28the
- 5:28reason
- 5:28you're
- 5:28doing
- 5:29that
- 5:29is
- 5:29because
- 5:29it's
- 5:29what

- 5:30can
- 5:30see
- 5:30when
- 5:30people

- 5:31to
- 5:31rent
- 5:31the
- 5:32unit.
- 5:32They're

- 8:20risk
- 8:20whenever
- 8:20you're

- 8:42a
- 8:42plus.
- 8:42What
- 8:43is

- 19:10of
- 19:10the
- 19:10ones
- 19:10that
- 19:10is
- 19:11most

- 19:16in
- 19:16plan
- 19:17A,
- 19:17B
- 19:17and
- 19:17C.
- 19:18However,
- 19:18you've

- 19:20period
- 19:20where
- 19:20you've

- 19:21the
- 19:22strategy
- 19:22or
- 19:22whatever

- 19:25it
- 19:26and
- 19:26now
- 19:26you're
- 19:26going
- 19:27to
- 19:27go
- 19:27ahead
- 19:28and
- 19:28sail.
- 19:28One
- 19:29of
- 19:29the
- 19:29cons
- 19:30of
- 19:30the
- 19:30sale
- 19:31is

- 19:34taxes.
- 19:35So
- 19:35if
- 19:35you
- 19:35have
- 19:36a
- 19:36large
- 19:36capital
- 19:36gain
- 19:37tax

- 19:37that
- 19:37property,
- 19:38that's
- 19:38part
- 19:38of
- 19:39the
- 19:39reason
- 19:39that
- 19:39maybe

- 19:42on
- 19:42that
- 19:42deal

- 19:46refinance,
- 19:47two
- 19:47very
- 19:47popular,
- 19:48very
- 19:48common
- 19:48options.
- 19:49And
- 19:49another
- 19:50option
- 19:50could
- 19:50be
- 19:50just
- 19:50simply
- 19:51holding
- 19:51the
- 19:51property.
- 19:51Right.
- 19:52So
- 19:52if

- 19:53is
- 19:53performing,
- 19:53maybe
- 19:54you're

- 19:58could
- 19:58be
- 19:59another
- 19:59possibility
- 19:59as
- 19:59well.
- 20:00Absolutely.
- 20:01And
- 20:01then
- 20:01obviously
- 20:02if
- 20:02you're,
