I was recently asked this question on Realtor.com
By: Karen Crystal
“I’m preparing to sell my house and have decided to change the shutter, front door, and garage color. The house is a pale yellow Cape Cod with white trim. Do I trust the Realtor’s instincts or go with my more traditional perspective?”
I answered my stating: “My opinion is that it is best to go with the tradition of the architectural style of a home. If the style is Cape Cod, then look at photographs in home design magazines and match the paint colors and palette that works with that particular style home.
I also recommend not getting too many opinions. Just trust your instincts.”
