In this episode of Landlording TV, we go back to Cohoes, NY to view the first of two completed apartments, which was rented before completion! We cut a lot of construction costs by changing the layout. We moved the bathroom door and kitchen instead of changing the bathroom layout to make room for a larger living room where the kitchen is now.

It’s always neat to see the Before and After of a Project!
