A more vague resistance I have to this idea is that they appear to rely solely on finding unrepresented buyers.

Lower income areas are more resistant to market change.

It’s a shame to tear down good walls, but might be the path of least resistance

Which is the path of least resistance?

These recession resistant investments can make steady returns and offer plenty of resale opportunities.These are the most common types of real estate investments that you may be interested in pursuing.

It even provides some thermal resistance with the foil and bubbles.

The north side fades differently then the south side, so in a few years you can no longer match the color because you end up with eight different shades of colors.I am not sure if this can be avoided by using a very light color like white or almond, but it is one consideration.What color will wear the best, and the most abuse resistant? 

I have also found flat paint covers better than eggshell for touchups in low traffic areas and HD has a new scuff resistant one I would like to try at some point.  

Marketing strategies come and go and laws change.You have to adapt to find out new ways that work when too much resistance builds up against a particular strategy.I hardly ever see the signs anymore.

While it's possible to get "creative" and find ways to put down less, the path of least resistance will likely be one of these two routes for your first property.Now, I don't know your market very well, but if the types of properties you are interested in purchasing are in the ballpark of $100,000 apiece, you will either need $3,500 OR $20,000, depending on how you purchase it.
