I liked the shelving in the laundry area (most buyers would appreciate that).I personally would stain the fence (you have 2 different colors), pull all of the garbage cans/yard debris containers and take a new picture. 

Afterwards We agree on color, date, time etc.  

Or would you sell it to an investor thinking they might be more interested in the income numbers than paint color or other nit picky things?

The trouble is that many of the same lenders I have used over the years are all maxed, I have even made calls to more "emotionally expensive" sources (EX. the types that call you to let you know that they have concerns about shingle color on the house they lent on and think it should be changed, two to three times a month) and even most of those are tapped. 

Just tell them you want matching colors and the best deal they have the day you call.  

Have it written down and as specific as you can get(ie paint colors, flooring choices, kitchen updates).

Nothing in this price range offered any details like up-to-date color pallets, shiplap siding, butcher block-like counters, black and white cabinets or cute coat cubbies.

They should sell it at home depot, its usually pink in color

I was given price allotments for square footage of flooring and allowed to pick paint colors, etc.
