So my now aggravated maint guy spray painted the entire box including the names with flat black Rustoleum.  

I'll keep this as drama free as possible.I met a girl who had two kids and we got pregnant.

The last one has a black kitchen.

After all, we're big boys and girls, right?

My HOA hired a company to assess the level of mold in my rental property after the gutter, just to the side of the roof, was damaged (and eventually caused black molding in my ceiling).

On mine, from 2009, it's molded into the black plastic of the shower head, so you need a good light to see it.

The crisis will catch everyone by surprise as it unfolds, but afterwards, everyone will look back and see the obvious signs that led up to it (Nassim Taleb's book The Black Swan).I don't know how to prepare simultaneously for both possible extremes.

If you said you wanted to get a new truck because the girl down the street thinks trucks are awesome, so you are going to drop $50k on one to impress this girl, my answer would sound like my dad when I was teenager: "get your priorities straight...".  

But that's your personal decision, if you like the high cashflow with low COC.I would look at if rents can be increased or how much it would cost to put some vinyl floors, white walls, and black trim or whatever it may need to be more optical to premium rent.
