It does NOT appear to be normal wear & tear.If this was an insurance claim, the insurance company would probably pay to have the whole room carpeted - assuming they'd be hard pressed to match the color given it's faded with age.Be sure you understand your state's SD laws and follow them to the letter!

No color editing or anything done to the photos.The house was never listed on the MLS.

Which color?

I took a quick look and it looks like it hides all the data behind some kind of over simplified UX with bright colors and rounded corners -- exactly what I'm looking to avoid.

Can't tell you how many investors have been referred to us by attorneys or just found us online and hire us to help them straighten out their mess - or liquidate it at a loss:(We HATE this because it reflects badly on our Metro Detroit market and it's a lost opportunity that would've helped improve our market.This is why we've spent thosuands of dollars on our interactive map that color-codes Metro Detroit Cities and City of Detroit Neighborhoods by Property Class. 

The color of the state won’t make your deal pencil out—market mechanics will.
