And most critically, we've had to explain the sizable amounts of money we've spent overseas and on travel expenses - as our first daughter is from Colombia, and our other two are from a country bordering Turkey and Iran.So yes: we've traveled extensively to countries with colorful histories, and have large transactions of cash in and out with some degree of frequency - we're the perfect borrowers :-)

While doing so I’ll provide my colorful opinions on the different types of properties that can be found on Stockton’s MLS.

@Phil Earley - Thanks so much for the color.

I've been reading a lot about this and had color tested the SW realist beige, but from the pics this looks more grey greige.

Don't renovate to the standard you would live in if it's a rental, and if it's a flip, make sure you understand what the market demands in terms of amenities, colors and styles!

Not sit around and paint with water colors or join your local golf course, but then again, you can if you want. 

It looks cozy and colorful enough, that I'D wanna live there :)  How did you figure out the ARV?? 

The federal Fair Housing Act of 1968 and the federal Fair Housing Act Amendments Act of 1988 prohibit discrimination on the basis of the following criteria (called “protected categories”): race or color; religion; national origin; familial status or age—includes families with children under the age of 18 and pregnant women; disability or handicap, or sex.

A narrated tour does give them more information, points out details, adds some 'color' so to speak, and can hopefully convince them to take the next step.

Remember Paint is just colored glue.You can scarify the concrete to remove as much as you can and then encapsulate the  concrete with a portland based self leveler ; Ardex, Mapei are a couple of national well recommended brands with good tech support.
