If you are open to doing a color stain let them know that.  

However, we do mask some personal identifiers such as SSN and DOB for security purposes.

I'm currently using a spreadsheet with color coding to indicate the following:Red - remove from list/returned mailYellow - responded to adBlue - letters sent, no responseWhite - no letters sentWhen calls come in, we have a lead sheet we fill out.  

In the Sale and Rental of Housing: No one may take any of the following actions based on race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status or handicap: Refuse to rent or sell housingRefuse to negotiate for housingMake housing unavailableDeny a dwellingSet different terms, conditions or privileges for sale or rental of a dwellingProvide different housing services or facilitiesFalsely deny that housing is available for inspection, sale, or rentalFor profit, persuade owners to sell or rent (blockbusting) orDeny anyone access to or membership in a facility or service (such as a multiple listing service) related to the sale or rental of housing.Notice the highlighted sections.  

If the walls did not have to be painted, but updating the color scheme might be considered necessary to get your property rented with the shortest period of vacancy.

I use the same colors in all houses (many do this), but whats different for me is that I do this even in working class neighborhoods.

My suggestion is to also stick to factory pre-mixed colors (never ever custom mix) and always write down in your lease the color that you put up so that your tenants can do touch ups and not have to ask you what the colors are.

You could alleged that "protected clases" of people are more likely to be renters and that the HOA's "no rental" policy "has a discriminatory effect where it actually or predictably results in a disparate impact on a group of persons or creates, increases, reinforces, or perpetuates segregated housing patterns because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin."

We also provide a sheet with General home info - location of electrical box, main water valve, water manifold, fire extinguisher, paint colors, air filter size, bulbs types, etc. what we don't have is the handbook or a landlord policy and procedures and may need to create one.

The "weimeraner" turned out to be an isabella colored dobermann pincher.Such bad luck for the applicant to pick a landlord who has been dog showing for 50 years and knows an isabella dobermann when she sees one.The dog had a lovely temperament and I would have taken her, but I rejected the applicant for what I consider to be a very serious lie.
