When it comes to rentals, you don't always get to move in to a beautifully renovated house or apartment with modern updates. There are probably a number of things you'd change if you could, like the paint color on the walls or the countertops in your kitchen, but you probably think, "I just have to live with it" or "I won't be here forever" or "There's nothing I can do about it." And while technically you can't pull an HGTV and redesign the whole space, there are plenty of things you can do to improve the look of your rental that don't require tons of effort or money and that won't upset your landlord, because we all know that a simple hole in the way from hanging up some art could put your security deposit in jeopardy.
