I always stay in each of my properties at least 3x a year.
I go with a drill, an electric screwdriver, paint supplies, cleaning supplies, and with a van ready to go to the DIY or furniture store.
I use these stays to enjoy my place as a guest, and make all the little tiny detailed improvements necessary for people to think, aaah, everything is in it's place and it's even better than at home!
Each year I try to improve a series of things big or small. This year it was: new bed heads and bed skirts, new mattress toppers, new shower floor, repainted walls, new pictures on the walls...
