Who has ever had a neighbor request you to paint your house so they could sell there house?
Author: admin // Category: Sell House QuicklyWhy could such a person not admit the reason why they want you to paint your own house? How quickly would you expect a negative response to that sort of social behaviour?
I can understand that your house make not help their house be appealing to a buyer and requesting help from you to sell their home.
In that situation, you don’t benefit directly, except to make your own home more attrative for your own well-being.
Ask them when they want to come paint your house and give them some acceptable colors they can choose from so that you can approve the work before they start. (Hint, this is a sarcastic answer to your neighbor so they can simply mind their own business and get away from you now instead of moving later.)

I have heard of people wanting their neighbors to clean up their gardens etc. so this is not unreasonable. Of course, the people wanting to sell their house should pay for the paint job.

I’ll be honest with you….at least consider it.
The color of a house is a HUGE turnoff to buyers if it’s a bad one.

If your house needs painting, or if the color is an obnoxious one, it could keep them from selling. You should ask your neighbor to at least contribute to the cost of it. Otherwise, tell them you can’t afford it.

Hey, if they are willing to foot the bill I would take them up on this "offer".

What color is your house?
Or, is it that your paint is fading, peeling, or chipping so badly, it looks ungodly next to their house?
They cannot force you to paint your house, but if they would like to foot the bill, I would go for it!
