Those are some open-minded parents to allow their kid to add graffiti to his bedroom. However, when it’s time to sell the house, this room should be repainted into neutral colors. Interestingly, the photo’s caption read “room will be repainted before closing.” Why not just paint it now? And why include the graffiti photo at all? Good intentions, but poor execution. The damage has already been done in the eyes of buyers.
A new blog post today from Elaine Manes at BlogHomeDenver.com can be found here. It emphasizes the importance of using neutral paint colors throughout a house when selling.

Thanks for the reference in your post! It never ceases to amaze me how people jeopardize their home sale over a $20 paint job!
