Should I repaint my house before selling in Ireland?

Residential Sales – Selling Your Property

Yes, if your house is looking shabby. A fresh coat of paint can make it more appealing and help it sell quickly for more money. To have the desired effect, the work must be done right, to a professional standard with appealing paint colours.

Avoid painting every room magnolia. Get minor repairs done before painting. Fresh external paint can help boost the kerb appeal. Sometimes painting the trim, such as windowsills, plinth, or door/garage door, will be sufficient to give it a lift. 

Home stagers are becoming more popular in Ireland. They can help pick out the right colours, and they have tradespeople who do quality work at a competitive price. Some smaller estate agents can give very good advice in this area, so talk with one or two before getting the work done.
