We get forced equity through fixing cheap fixes that turn people off (bad wall color etc) and going through the short sale process (5-15% cheaper)!

So if you find a home that has a lot of the have to haves and even want to haves don’t overlook it because you don’t like the paint color or type of fixture.

I have a colorful background meaning I have built Custom Houses/Apartments/Condos from the ground up for 4 years, got my Home Inspection Licence, the wife is PMP certified, and I currently work in an Investment Bank in the IT Department.

I love the floors and the gray/white color scheme.

I also implemented a bold accent color that we apply to one wall, or a fireplace.

We have kilz'd everything, used ozone generators, thoroughly cleaned duct work and vents, cleaned out dryer vent, replaced all cabinets, kilz'd and replaced all flooring, painted everything (on top of kilz), so basically replaced and sealed everything except for insulation in attic and insulation in unfinished part of basement.

As I said my current PC is colored card stock with text.

I would like a book that recommends what projects to work on first, what paint colors to choose, what carpet to buy, etc.

The Crackle Fantasy glass accent pieces (which Home Depot carries in stock) really made a statement in this kitchen; not only did this glass accent match well with the granite counters, it also really pulled all the colors together from the flooring to the Martha Stewart paint on the cabinetry.Here are some of the SKU's we used in the kitchen:Cabinets - Unfinished Oak Cabinets (387-246)Cabinet Color - Mushroom (MSL 248)Cabinet Handles - 3" Liberty Satin Nickel (731-819)Backsplash - Crackle Fantasy (773-887), Arctic Ice Subway Glass in White 12" x 12" (Internet Order #202523616)Backsplash Grout - Polyblend #382 Bone 10-lb.

I'm going to paint neutral colors throughout the house.
