I would concur that very few whites are relocating to Prince George’s County but many people of color may not be as susceptible to various stigmas.

(EDIT - please ignore some of the colors, they do not mean what they may appear.

I would also paint the kitchen walls in a neutral color and paint the wood paneling white. 

The house was built in 1938, it's a craftsman style home, original hardwood flooring in good shape, original windows but it very good shape, the walls and ceiling had been filled with blown insulation, had a new roof installed in 2017, and the sellers were willing to pay 5k to have the house painted to the color of your choice.  

@Steve Vaughan  also very much depends on where in the US it is.. and what your tenant base is..some tenant bases around the country are peach's and cream and not tough on property and pay on time.and rarely does  a unit go vacant one moves out 3 to 5 days to clean and turn it another moves in.in other parts of the country tenants move a ton.. are tougher on the homes.. bigger credit risks IE don't pay and it can take more money to turn them over  and longer time finding new tenant.. so it depends.. but 50% is a good rule of thumb if your having to hire it all out that's for sure. 

My daughter ordered hers as seconds ,they came in mismatched different colors and  she had them painted to match.

I will use existing rental income and income from my other business (ice cream shops) to fund the repairs needed.

I held onto it, and also updated paint colors.

So it's going to be another few years until there is a surplus of "blue-color" homes that investors can buy and rehab, due to them having deferred maintenance.
