I use a very light blue eggshell with semi-gloss bright white woodwork, doors, etc.

Its only Blue Sky which in my mind leads folks into a false sense of security...

However if the demographic likely to live there would be using the kitchen on the lighter side it's safe to say IKEA cabinets would work well.

Once in a blue moon I'll wholesale a sub2 deal, but only to what I would call an accredited investor and by accredited, I mean that person has more money than me.

They're blue collar rural types so their homes and cars can get a little sloppy etc.

The home also qualifies for a local energy program we have, which covers half of the cost of new doors and windows including installation.The neighborhood is a modest/ blue collar with a low crime rate.

lolOr maybe red vs blue on the political horizon.

I've had good success using a paste of bleach, oxyclean powder, and blue dawn dish soap.  

I don't care if they are blue, purple, 21 years old, male , female, animal, tree, alien... and our lead gen systems don't discriminate based on those factors.

If you structure the deal differently, you can conserve capital and put your returns through the roof.Here is a model of your cash position as you described it.Assumptions:You buy for $100K and finance $80K at 6.5% fixed rate for 30 yearsYou sell for $130K (no fixup costs) and finance, no money down, at 8.5% for 30 years with a balloon in 24 months.It takes 3 months to find the person you are going to put into the home (they start in the 3rd month)This data is shown with the RED line.Now structure the deal differently by getting the same house at the same price ($100K) but on a land contract or subject-to the existing mortgage.Assumptions:The existing mortgage was originally on a principal balance of $120K at 7% fixed rate over 30 years.The outstanding principal balance on this loan is now $100KYou take over house and have to make their paymentsYou have to make $2K in fixup costs (carpet, paint)You sell the house on a lease option with 2% down and payments equal to your first example (8.5% over 30 years, etc.)It takes 3 months to find the person you are going to put into the home.This data is show with the BLUE line.As you can see, the same deal structured differently can produce much different results.
