Antiques?

The property consists of a 2 family home and a seperate cape cod that is an antique bussiness.

Very fast, economical and looks fine.I, however, use antique white on walls with white on ceilings and trim for contrast.Full disclosure: I have a partner/significant other who makes all such decorating decisions.However, this combo really pops with either polyurethaned hardwood floors or the latest in trends: European-style hardwood floors.

The laws are antiquated and there is no longer cheap debt to disguise poor formation laws.

A lot of the antique whites are yellowish, and that's always a good choice of color for rentals.If you don't like the way it looks, you can dress it up with crisp white trim and that won't cost nearly as much as repainting.Tenants get tired of rental white walls, so any color at all is often a plus.

I painted every room and closet, and re-painted all the trim and doors (I used the 5 gals. of dutch boy antique white throughout).

I did it by finding sterling silver spoons that an antique shop was selling for $1 a piece - not having any idea what they were selling.

It’s insane.The fact is wholesalers provide a valuable service, not unlike an antiques dealer.

I expected a lot more diversification, with me being the sole 100% real estate.I have other assets that could be sold and still not make a % of my net: antiques, silver, art, jewelry, show dogs--none of it purchased for investment but still most of it could be cashed out for more than I paid for it.I do real estate because I both enjoy it and know it.

I saw one larger den that used an off white or sand color on the ceiling with darker brown walls and they had put up false beams and antiqued them.
