Spring has officially arrived, even though the weather isn’t quite reflecting that yet. Regardless, “selling season” is here and many people are starting to prepare to sell their homes.
Many real-estate agents will give you the same advice when it comes to selling your home: you must stage it well. From making sure the inside is clear of cutter and presents as a clean, updated space, to making sure the outside is inviting and full of curb appeal.
People often focus on preparing the inside of their home but the outside is just as important.
One way to get the outside of your home to meet potential buyers standards: a fresh coat of paint.
There are several paint colors that are popular among potential buyers include off-white, gray, yellow, lighthouse red. However, how well the color of your home appeals to a buyer is dependent on the look and feel of your neighborhood as well. If all of the homes on your street have bright, eye-catching colors, you probably want to stay away from painting your home a grayish tone. If everyone has an off-white or neutral home you can show a little personality in your trim choice but you should stick to the basics for the majority of the color.
Even if your home is one of these popular colors already, when’s the last time you gave it a good paint job? Years of weather, dirt, debris, and aging in general can give your home a dingy outside appearance. Freshen up you home with a coat of paint which will help it stand out to people purchasing and will be a “job” that they won’t have to do, making it more “move-in ready!”
Painting the the exterior of your home can be a tough job which is why it is important to hire Richard Stewart Painting, the premiere choice for interior and exterior commercial and residential painting.
