I was leaning more towards black appliances since it will (likely) be more aesthetically durable; especially considering that since it's a student population and we will likely not have one long-term tenant.The flip side is that SS is popular and I think students will appreciate having SS (as long as it shows nice) and we might be able to squeeze a few extra rent dollars marketing the place.Thanks in advance for your input.

Higher home prices are putting a dent in the popularity of house flipping in metro Denver, according to a new study from Trulia.About 4.5 percent of metro Denver home sales involved flips in the third quarter of 2015, down from 5.7 percent of sales in the same quarter a year earlier, Trulia found.That ranked Denver 51st out of 85 metro areas that Trulia looked at for flips and was among the bigger declines found in any metro area.In fix-and-flips, an investor buys a home that needs repairs at a discount then resells the property at a higher price after fixing it up as quickly as possible.Trulia puts Denver in a group of cities, along with Los Angeles and San Diego, where escalating home prices have raised the risk for rehabbers and cooled speculative activity.Some flipped homes are getting pushed into more expensive price tiers, which means they take longer to sell....http://www.denverpost.com/business/ci_29533885/hou...

Here is my opinion, which won't be popular. 

More so Briarwood, as I've notice the popularity in that area has increased in the last 2-3 years.

With the quote of "free labor," you will be very popular soon!  

In Milwaukee, 53218 and 53216 seem to be the most popular passive income zip codes for us.  

So maybe I can get away with this "just-in-time" thing that's popular these days

I made a post about it in the short-term rental forum; look there for more details.I don't have any rental property in KC, MO, but I know it's popular among out-of-state landlords, so I figured I'd pass this on.
