won't probably increase value but will let sale go through.
i had a house with a super bright yellow wall that I really liked. Changed that countertops linoleum & went through.
most renters/buyers don't have alot of creativity. they want to move in & set up TV.
so i would definitely neutralize

Definitely! I’m just a guy who likes to dive in and get things going. College and football will definitely be my first priority, but I want to get a head start so that I will be prepared for life after school. Haha.
Are there any real estate licenses that can work for multiple states? I currently live in WA, so if I were to move to ND, go through all of the course work and then get licensed there, would I have to get another for WA? Would I have to take another set of classes?
have to look at reciprocity. can get expensive being a Realtor. e&o insurance & licensing.

Hey all! I’m an 18 year old who is going to college on a football scholarship. I am very interested in getting started in the Real Estate industry. I’m a go-getter who wants to get started in my career early. What should I do to gain as much knowledge, and what can I do to get started?

18 to get Realtor license in ND. Then gear all your college projects to that in some way?
If you get success as a Realtor I would still make sure to finish your degree.
not sure price of belonging to local Realtor board. but maybe just do referrals. & not belong to local board. Or even work as property manager altho could be time consuming.
Plus enjoy your time in college. lots of time later to work/chase dollars. & football is a sport that you really only get to really do when you're younger. don't see many 50 year old guys putting on the pads.

Why do realtors want to pretend that calculating real estate commissions or ANYTHING they do is 1. complex 2. remotely necessary ??????????
I can do fine without some real estate agent's rhetorical advice, market mastery and negotiation "wizardry". An agent provides zero value other than opening the door in my estimation.
The question is how do I write into my cash offer that the selling agent will either reduce his/her commission, or give me a credit at closing. Would it be easier to just have my own buyer's agent and agree on the rebate with them?
reading your other posts:
....... I'm new to real estate investing and have been getting e-mails from home investment companies stating the house (for example)
ARV $250,000
Seller Asking Price $215,000
Repairs Needed $0
There has to be a catch. Why would they do this?.............
I would offer more advice, but since yiu as a Newbie know more than a Realtor I'm disinclined to. But you as a Newbie know more than a Realtor. smh x2.
