Rental property improvements come in all shapes and sizes. While some landlords rave about getting the best deals in town, other landlords focus on a higher upfront cost that leads to less wear and tear from a tenant (and less headache for the landlord). Before you buy your next property, add these nine ‘bulletproof’ rental property improvements to your rehab list.

James Dainard, expert flipper and owner of over five hundred rentals, has used these upgrades to make his life far easier. These simple upgrades allowed James to scale quickly since he wasn’t spending every day trying to fix a faucet he bought from a 50%off online retailer. James harps on using highquality, durable, easilyreplaceable fixtures and materials so you can focus more on acquisition, and less on timeintensive repairs and replacements.

What are the goto fixtures and materials you put in your rentals? Are you a carpet or LVP type investor? Let us know in the comments below!
