I actually prefer real wood fronts in espresso color since white shows dirt easily and is painted wood.  

Im not trying to poke fun....but now is when it is psychologically easy to get into the game.

I am ready to move past the psychological stage and will be ready to move forward with this process feb-apr 2019.

All interiors have the same paint color scheme. 

Our motto is "We won't throw away a 25 year close friendship over the color of the pillow shams."

You might find that there are restrictions you can't live with like prohibitions on parking a camper, boat or commercial vehicle - and even the colors you can paint your doors or shutters.Be sure to ask whether there are any pending lawsuits against the condo association or any special assessments in existence now or anticipated in the future.You shou;d also request a certificate of good standing from the condo association, meaning that the seller doesn't have any outstanding fines or fees. 

I didn't, but you could add a band of mosaic to add some color.

Or, I thought about just throwing up some lighter shutters & painting the stucco a light color. 

I have found that using the color palettes from the paint companies is 10 times better than trying to choose paint colors individually.  

They like their color palettes and vignettes arranged on the fireplace mantle.
