I am starting another project, a possible flip or rental. I noticed that remodeled homes and rentals are boasting nice earth tone interior paint schemes these days. I like the look. I never did like the old off-white ...

If you paint it red and people defend the fact you painted it red by arguing that..... red is a nice color and promotes happy thoughts, well then throw out all contracts and just decide when legal agreements matter on a whim.

We're 3 months in and have initiated 4 calls (work orders etc) to date.Here have been our data points, with both financials and some more 'color' on how they've gone:Early April 2018: First Call in was a Stop Box failure where it failed in the open position and tenant had not been paying Water Bill for entire tenacy. 

Original fixtures, period paint colors, views, detached oversized garage w shop etc..   

I thought about testing a nice paint scheme and some trendier colored flooring. 

It could be as simple as an agreed-upon shirt color or, if funds and resources permit, a hat, button or an apron/tool belt that can be used to hold change and proceeds.

Maybe first try yellow letters handwritten (pastel color letter to make it look like it’s from a relative, with a unique stamp= higher chance of an open), 3 to 4 weeks later try a post card, 4 weeks later try another post card and so on.

Just FYI too, the ARV given to us by our lender is at 465k, so not sure why our agent is rushing to go to the price drop route.

These rules can include anything from what colors you can paint your house, how many cars you can park in the community, what condition the cars must be in, what restrictions there are on lawn length and type of landscaping you can have, whether or not you are permitted to rent out your house, etc.

This is a form of the 'syndication' we were seeing in the 80's and 90's, which is now a dirty word.I've already survived one bubble with flying colors, and have a bomb-proof strategy to survive another.
