What idiot pays for upgrades to a house they're just renting, Jesus wept.
Seriously. The most I'd EVER do is free basic repairs and that's only because my last landlord was my good friend, meaning I was getting a killer deal.
I did that when I had an awesome landlord. I just sent pics about what I was fixing and gave her a price. Then I got my rent reduced by that much.
But that was the only rental property she owned. It was extra money for her, not her primary income. And I paid several hundred less than anyone else in the area according to Zillow.

These are the best types of landlords. One of my previous landlords was retired, but he used to be a CTO at a tech company. He was renting out the property just for something to do during retirement - he didn't actually need the money. He was fantastic. The air conditioner stopped working one summer and he had a new one installed within a week.
I did basic repairs at my old place. The rent was well below market and I'd rather do it than have to deal with the landlord's odd schedule.
