Same colors throughout the house?

We like happy colors in Arizona 

What paint color and finishes are you all using for interiors?

What "Goodies" were in it.Apparently you survived the encounter--you might not have with everyone.Maybe your potential renters are seeing something in/about these men that you are missing.Maybe it's as simple as a gang hand sign, or a gang method of dress, hairstyle or color of clothing.Maybe it's some particular 'Body Language" of the "Street" that you are totally unaware of.Maybe it's the pronunciation of a certain word that clues them in.People from the area also may know one or more of these men and know their past history and present "Activities" but not say anything to you about it.Some of these areas in Los Angeles are extremely well kept up--but still have bars over the windows--for a reason.Good Luck!
