The nice thing with the boiler plate is that they're very neutral.

That can help neutralize the issue of price because they can see they're getting so much more out of the deal than just the dollars you're handing them for the house. 

That being said, for rent I won't be able to cash flow, just (hopefully) be neutral, I am surrounded by a huge number of condo and townhouse complexes, and it isn't the type of property we are looking to use as our niche going forward.

Maybe bright yellow is popular, but I'd consider something more neutral like a gray.Also look at seal coating the driveway and maybe stain the landscaping timbers.PS - my wife says that my taste is all in my mouth, so take my thoughts with a large grain of salt!

I am a 20 year Realtor, and investor in the Valley and want to add to Patrick's point.... our market here sits at a neutral point at about 25K active listings. 

Chose warm welcoming neutral colors to paint the interior and paint everything, including closets, baseboards and interior doors.

It is clean and neutral.

Jonathan Roberts have you had a neutral party look at the property for you?

The concept of having a neutral third party looking after a property is interesting but not sure how you would go about monitoring a property manager and a tenant? 

I think you have to put the look together before making judgments.JUST going solely on the cabinets, I would say white, because it is the most neutral, and goes with everything.
