Gray is a neutral color and it looks modern. Many other common colors you see in houses (piss yellow, dark red, baby blue, etc.) look like they came straight out of a rich granny catalog. Boomers have zero taste and you know it.

Most people don't like the grey, but it's inoffensive and is easier to flip than an opinionated design style (Mediterranean, Bohemian, etc). The people who design in this style are just looking to maximize return on investment and that grey is a cheap way to redesign a home.

How did you target which homes to purchase?

>> No.56558703

>>56558570
The most important part is *a good neighborhood*. Then you can check sales data or just drive around and visually identify the cheaper houses. Then you identify your expected selling price, which gives you a budget. Then you can go to work:
>to fix low curb appeal, repair/repaint the exterior. you can add flower bushes to mask flaws and enhance appeal. Wives love this shit.
>to add value internally, update the appliances and flooring. update the bathroom.
It's really not that hard. You just need to stay within your budget. Do everything you can yourself to minimize costs.

Carpet in a basement is nice; till it gets wet constantly cause basements leak. Nope. Ditch the carpet. Save yourself the mold growth removal headache and the carpet replacement costs.Same goes with flooring in a basement. Unless it's made for such environments that shit will rot and buckle and mold to. Also if your basement ceiling where your plumbing is for your upstairs fixtures is covered you might want to keep that exposed. A leak happens you'd never know till that shit rotted or molded unless it was a big one. Which again costs extra to fix that.

This is the stupidest self-fullfilling meme. Boomer real estate agents tell their clients millenials are lazy and don't want to paint, so they should paint everything grey. Then other boomers see the trend and think they need to paint grey to sell.
