Thoughts on existing trim and painting vinyl exterior
Hey BP flippers. I am currently looking to close on a SFH next week to flip. My question is about trim and siding. My normal houses are so beat up I have to replace everything but this particular house isn't in as bad of shape. Thus I had to pay a little more than normal as well. So the trim is throughout the entire house and is a lighter oak color. Basically something I would never put in but it's in great shape and would help with the price of the flip if I keep it. My question on that is should I paint it and if so what color, replace everything or keep it as is. If I keep it what color cabinets should I go with in the kitchen?
Second question is siding. Again I'd normally replace it but it's in good shape but just plain white. Can or should I paint it? And if so any color ideas?
Appreciate any advice, thanks.
