What about some bold black/dark colored details to add contrast with the white?

I was fully prepared to go to Memphis and take over the project because I was left in the dark.

They only want the sunlight from others, but then they end up in the dark because they didn't listen.

Turns out the daughter's boyfriend was smoking in the bathroom...Sometimes they can scrub, others it has to go down to the studs and rebuilt if there's been a lab.

Dark stain can mitigate a lot of that, but it's really a judgement call on your part. 

Several had mint green walls with dark brown trim, and hardwood floors that hadn’t seen love in a very long time.

Yes there is a dark side but there is a ton of positive. 

I have not heard from him and he has ignored my phone calls.Maybe this is a one off but it kinda sucks that as a first time investor with them I have been left in the dark and it seems my project has been blown off but I definitely would not recommend them.  

I will take the haircut/dilution risk, go smoke a bunch of "hope-ium" that they can squeeze blood from this turnip in 3,4,5 yrs from now...If not, such is life. 

So when and if they tried that stunt on us we just would keep the EM and resell.but in practice those guys always closed we smoked them out day one.
