I was lucky had a good tenant family stayed 6 .5 years , After we decided to sell, It would be challenge to let the house vacant for long time. so I used neighborhood so called painter ... then those guys taken baby step to finish the job.

@Ram VenkatThat could be repainted for 3-400$ by a handyman painter and one or two gallons of sherwin Williams paint .

Like the title says, I am looking for an exterior painter in the Appleton/Fox Valley Wisconsin area.

If a painter told you it costs 5k to paint a 12x12 room you would cuss him and run him off at gunpoint.

They even required a lead paint certified painter to go over any chipping (we don't have any up here...

Heard of this trick from a painter.

They want to bring in their own painters but I feel these will just be random people hired from the street.

Now that I'm thinking on it, I've had a lot of applicants ask if they could paint my neutral walls because it was boring to them.I was showing my friend, who is a house painter with an artistic sense, one of my properties to just show him what I was in to.

If you need a couple of repairmen/painters, I have 2 that I can recommend.

Plus it's super DIY friendly, so you could probably do it yourself instead of paying a painter.
