These things literally never happen in construction.....and it is almost always the customers fault....changes to materials, colors, fixtures, etc....So I would focus on finding a great Contractor to work with and be uber-clear in your desires on the project.

Two of the units had been "Updated", but this was the typical tired landloard update which included a poor cabinet paint job, the cheapest flooring, and single color all flat paint everywhere.

And I’ve never had any issues with touch-ups as long as you use the same color batch and mix the paint before using it. 

On high end construction, some buyers will walk because you have the wrong brand of appliances, wrong color of cabinet pulls, etc. 

Paint: What is your go-to color for interior walls?

Ah, now someone is being hateful sounding with sarcasm, I never said I agree with you, I said I was glad to hear that you take title, which really isn't the true guru colors of wholesalers.

Talk to some other investors in your area for the best granite guys and you can probably have a tier 1 color installed for $25 per sq. ft. including the sink cut-out and a 4" splash.

You can finish up with them and have some colorful awesome looking plans, and then the DEQ in Bozeman will just deny it all.Price out infrastructure like roads, lights, fire hydrants, treatment systems, before you even approach the owner.

While opportunities exist to buy in at 250k, it feels like this is reasonably more house for the extra 50k, but maybe I’m looking through rose colored glasses. 

Does anyone know of a style guide or resources on matching colors, backsplash styles, etc.?
