Your Front Door: The Ultimate First Impression

Your front door is the gateway to your home.

A freshly stained or painted door, with shiny new hardware and clean glass, says “Welcome home!” to buyers who come to see your house. A front door with peeling paint, rusted hardware and fingerprinted glass might just leave them out in the cold. First impressions matter, and your front door is the ultimate first impression. Stand outside your house, and if you’re less than satisfied with how your front door looks, change it up! Consider a fresh coat of paint or stain — one of the newest trends in real estate is to make your front door pop with a bold, contrasting color — replace old hardware, and clean any glass surfaces on the door. With something as important as your front door, you may want to put your DIY skills on hold. A professional painter has access to the most durable, weather- resistant materials and will create a pristine finish. I always recommend Steven's Custom Painting to my clients. Their painters are professional and highly skilled. You won’t have to worry about patchy work or unsightly drips. While you’re having your front door painted, walk through your house and consider the impression your paint colors might have. 106
