The bedroom walls are all painted different colors and I wanted to paint the whole house in one neutral color with another neutral color for the trimming.

BUT, that's VERY last minute, they want to meet an hour from now to get the keys, and if that means they will be moving after dark, and making noises late into the night, disturbing other occupants, that would be an issue.

In court they used the fact that I had evicted a black man and rented to a white woman as de-facto proof of my discriminatory actions.I countered with the defense that while I had no problem with renting to any color of person and would never favor one color over another - nothing in the law says that I have to rent to the annoying or the disagreeable ******** of the world.
