Accents for my duplex

Hi all!

I am looking for advice. I recently had my duplex painted. It really needed it. It turned out a bit more purple than I had. #failforward. LOL

Anyway, originally, I was going to add wood shutters to each of the windows but I have a total of 16 windows and this would prove to be very expensive and or labor-intensive for the return on my money. 

Can anyone help me with some accent or trim idea? I want to keep it simple but make the place look nice for a potential refinance.   

Thanks in advance.

    Agreed with above that flower boxes would be nice touch as well as front door contrast color (maybe yellow?).  Aside from those updates, perhaps you go with some green shrubbery in front of windows to give some depth (fully realizing this isn’t the best time of year to plant shrubs in Michigan!😄)
