I prefer a blended approach of cash flow and appreciation, which is why I am in multiple markets.

@Patrick Philip there are 2 specific risks here, which you are blending.1) Handyman hurts himself on your property doing thier work.  

More cash flow, appreciation, or a blend of the two?

I'd suggest a darker sage green for the body color (would blend nicely with the wooded setting), with a very bright creamy white trim for all the window casings, facia and gutters, porch columns and ceiling. 

I strongly agree with your approach to investing that blends lazyman portfolios with hands-on investments.

If I have to recommend anything the flooring does not blend to well with existing scheme.

@Wilson CheungB class rentals typically have a good blend of both.

We are blending technology with on the ground expertise. 

I drove through this neighborhood with @Alex Craig, and I still could not tell you which streets to avoid because they are blended so closely together. 

The reason I say this is because you're going to be piggy backing off of other investors' marketing efforts and all of the names and companies blend in after a while to the seller.
