I like to completely remodel such a house with bright, happy colors target to sell to young couples with families.

Many have painted the walls different colors than the house that they are attached.

The free hauling is worth something to me.But selling stuff on craigslist is a job and unless you're in a large urban area, you might not get any interest.What make and what color?

@Jamal AtwellJamal, with any majoirty jurisdiction of color in the United States you are going to hear a host of negative things about it.

I only get a few color options ( I always do same one, Desert Dune) but I end up paying $1.50 sq ft for the carpet installed.

I see the "yellow letters" getting talked up a good amount, or have people had success with the simple postcards that say "We buy houses" or "We buy ugly houses" ,etc If its the post card route, do you think I should go "el cheapo" and get just a basic 2 color card or spend extra for something fancier,. or ???

I had roughly 40 samples, all different colors, shapes, sizes, etc.

What color would look good?
