If you’ve decided to sell your house, do you need to repaint? Do buyers expect to see freshly painted exteriors and interiors when they tour a potential new home? The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and the short answer is “yes”. Painting your exterior and key rooms in the interior a neutral color can help attract buyers and boost your sale price. However, some variables may sway your decision, like what type of market you’re selling in and the current condition of your paint. If your exterior paint is chipping, peeling, or fading, paint your house before selling. Curb appeal is vital for making a fantastic first impression with buyers; it sets the tone for buyers’ expectations of your home’s condition. Since your home’s exterior takes up most of the view, fresh paint can go a long way in enhancing buyers’ initial view. Check out below to see what sold in Lakes of Northville in July 2021:

Be aware that painting your exterior isn’t as easy as painting an interior room. You’ll need to pressure wash, tape off windows, doors, and light fixtures, and sand and prime the exterior surface before painting. You also should feel safe using a ladder, especially if you own a multi-story home. If you’re not confident in your abilities, it’s in your best interest to hire a professional.
