When you touch up paint it doesn’t match due to the sheen not color and flat makes this a non issue so I can touch up much easier instead of painting the whole wall.  

I don't still have pictures of my first rental house, but it is on a slab, and the home was built in the late 60s when lime-colored asbestos tile was all the rage.

It is really just a slow motion flip.Good Luck,Mike

I was shocked that they matched the color so well that you can't even tell there was ever a hole.

White or colored envelope?

I would to to fill/repair with some kind of epoxy that roughly matches color in large part to strengthen those cracks and prevent them from worsening and then cover the center of the stairs with a carpeted runner.

I have also, in some rare situations, let a tenant out of a lease without penalty, such as a job loss, or moving out of state, things like that.I had a few applicants who wanted to repaint to a different color, I said fine, but can't be a DIY job, it must be someone professional I hired, a color we both agree on, and the tenant pays for it. 

Any one on this thread who can provide some color on the current situation on the ground. 

Homeowners are wowed by the ability to pick out colors, finishes and appliance packages.
