@Jonathan Farber Looks to me like the previous owners went with a contemporary look. I think the contrast between the dark gray and white siding is too much. So a lighter gray there. And the bright red doors are too much. I might photoshop different color doors. Teal, green, navy and gray, not bright...see if that makes them look more like townhomes. If not, then tone down the red. Navy is trending and two of the owner occupied condos here used navy. The other picked a red as bright as yours, so maybe you are good. But I prefer a burgundy or deep cherry. Landscaping always looks nicer, too.
