@Michael Keane Appliance color/brands shouldn't effect an appraisal, only capital improvements like cabinets, countertops, and you can give your appraiser a list of all you've done.

It comes in about 10 color options and they mix it for you at the store.

Don't know if this is the best place to ask for paint color advice, but i'll start here. 

I knew not to completely trust the peanut gallery.Anyway, I ran into this too. The

Myself and 50 other investors are fighting tooth and nail for every house the banks let go of. 2-3 years ago vacants were 5-20k.

Then their true colors show. 

But if the water heater is long in the tooth, replace it, even if it still works.

From the listing photos all the bedrooms have different color bed skirting (red, beige, blue, brown, etc.), different color/patterned rugs, and different color/type of furniture, etc.

A good drywall repairman is a valuable member of the turn team.Also there is a prime-ing and painting to do, swapping out brass fixtures for silver colored ones, and a biggie--door replacements for kicked interior doors.Changing front door locks, changing interior door handles, knowing how to true up the locks to the lock plates so they work like hot butter.Knowing how to repair a broken screen, knowing how to change water hoses on a washing machine, every year.Being able to give a front door a smooth paint job with no brush streaks, steel, wood, fiberglass and antique doors with varnish on them.If you and your customer both have an iphone you can use facetime (free video chat) to connect real time, and the customer can see what you see as well as hear you.

Here too, the timing isn't right to make an investment.
