Beige Bathroom - What to do?
I just purchased my first rental property. The property is very nice, however the bathrooms are beige and look outdated. It is a 2br/2ba and one bathroom has a beige tub and beige tiling in the shower. The second bathroom has a beige toilet, shower tiles, and stand up shower.
I am not too concerned because I feel the unit will rent. However, the beige may be a bit of a detriment in the long haul. Are there any tricks or cheap ways to update a beige bathroom?

I personally think that the bathroom looks great. Not only are the colors neutral, but they will likely hold up for years to come. The only thing that caught my eye is the white caulk. Perhaps using a matching beige caulk would not have been so tacky. As Laura Williams said, clean is the way to go and the way it is now, it will be easy to keep clean during turnover. While reglazing it is an option, I would reserve that only for the pink, green, and blue colored tiles.
