Scheduled Exterior Paint Maintenance

By
Real Estate Agent with Group/7 Real Estate Service

When I was young, I noticed my neighbor's home always looked sharp, so I asked the elderly owner how he kept it looking so good.

His answer stuck with me, good advice from an experienced homeowner. He told me that every year, he painted ONE SIDE of his house. That way the paint was fresh every 4 years, and the job was never too big to tackle. Any bad spot in the siding came to his attention while it was small and easy to address. 

As long as you stick with the same paint color, this technique is guaranteed to keep your exterior in good shape for as long as you own your home.

Joy, I never would have thought of doing it that way but it does sound like a really great idea!  Taking a big job and breaking it into manageable steps
