Styling your home's exterior for sale
When it comes to selling your home, first impressions are everything. Potential buyers often form their opinion even before stepping inside, which is why styling your exterior for sale is as important as staging the interior.
How To Guides
Refurbish your exteriors with a fresh coat of paint
One of the simplest yet most impactful way to refresh your home's exterior is to give it a fresh coat of paint. Choose a neutral colour palette like Vivid White™ with Tranquil Retreat. Opt for colours that compliment the architectural style of your home and ensure the colours appeal to a wide range of buyers. Don't forget to touch up any areas that show signs of wear and tear, such as trims, shutters, and siding, to give your home a polished and well-maintained appearance.
Exterior
Tranquil Retreat
With a soft and subtle warmth, Tranquil Retreat is a great neutral to use inside or outside the home. It schemes beautifully with Terrace White, Namadji®, Teahouse and Colorbond® colours Woodland Grey®, Monument® and Shale Grey™.
Level up your landscaping
Investing in landscaping can significantly increase the perceived value of your home and make it more attractive to potential buyers. Start with a well-manicured lawn that's free of weeds and debris.
Add colourful flowers and plants to create visual interest and enhance curb appeal as it invites buyers to step inside. Consider adding mulch or gravel to flower beds and borders to define planting areas and create a tidy, polished look. Fencing contributes to your home's curb appeal too. A quick spray paint application will work wonders in refreshing the entire look. Learn how to spray with Dulux RapidFinish™.

Refresh your outdoor living spaces
Highlighting outdoor living spaces is another effective way to style your exterior for sale. If you have a patio or deck, consider a fresh coat of paint to elevate the existing look. Stage these areas with stylish furniture and accessories to showcase their potential for entertaining and relaxation. Create cosy seating areas with comfortable chairs and accessories with decorative elements such as lanterns, candles, and throw pillows. By creating inviting outdoor living spaces, you'll help buyers envision themselves enjoying the lifestyle your home has to offer.
