Rental Property Paint Advice

Good Day everyone, is there any preferred color of paint for ceiling as well as walls for a rental house? 

At present leaning towards white ceiling paint and then any light color or gray for the walls or maybe same light color on the ceiling, as well as walls?

Is there any best approach? Thank you for the help and advice.

We use all Valspar Meddalion paint. It covers really well matches really well and cleans up if you need to scrub hand prints from the walls. We use Ceiling white on all ceilings and all Walls we use Raffia Beige on everything in Eggshell. It is a light tone tenants can add color by curtains ect. We can go in 1-5 yrs later and touch up wear marks or mishaps and not paint the whole wall. If we have to you can get by just painting a room or a wall. We never have to remember what color or sheen? A little higher priced up front but it has been excellent for us. We paint around 200 gal a year. Hope that helps. Good Luck!!
