Neutral, fresh interior paint is the single strongest signal to buyers and tenants that a property has been maintained. We use low-VOC Dulux and Wattyl systems in tones that appeal to the widest buyer pool: warm whites, soft greys, and on-trend neutrals. Every room assessed and staged in writing before we start.
Street appeal determines whether buyers walk through the door. A freshly painted exterior adds more perceived value than any other cosmetic improvement. We assess condition, prepare surfaces correctly, and apply a UV-rated system that looks sharp on open home day and holds for years after settlement.
The front door is the highest-impact single improvement per dollar spent before a sale. A freshly painted door in a considered colour, coordinated to the facade, adds kerb appeal that photographs well and impresses in person.
Buyers notice fence condition before they notice anything else from the street. A freshly painted or stained fence signals a maintained, cared-for property. We work on timber, Colorbond, and masonry boundary treatments.
Property managers depend on painters who meet vacancy deadlines. Rental property painting in Brisbane between tenancies means fast turnaround, neutral colour choices, and a finish that cleans up well for the next occupant. We schedule around vacancy windows and coordinate directly with property managers.
Pre-sale repaints that cover interior and exterior in a single scope. One contractor, one written quote, one completion date your agent can rely on. Investment property painting across Brisbane with documented timelines.
Whether you need real estate painting across Brisbane, a rental property repainted between tenancies, or a full pre-sale repaint your agent can document, each job needs a different approach from your painter.
“Our agent recommended Metro before listing. They quoted within 24 hours, started 2 days later, and finished the day before the first open home. The property sold $47,000 above reserve. Worth every dollar.”

“Our agent recommended Metro before listing. They quoted within 24 hours, started 2 days later, and finished the day before the first open home. The property sold $47,000 above reserve. Worth every dollar.”
“Deck was grey and peeling after years of neglect. Metro stripped it back, sanded, and applied two coats of Cabot's decking oil. It looks better than the day it was built. Lazar's crew left the property spotless.”
“Lazar and his team repainted our entire home interior in 3 days. Prep work was meticulous. Every surface filled and sanded before a roller touched the wall. The finish is flawless and the house feels brand new. The quote was written, detailed, and exactly what we paid.”

QUICK ANSWER
A full interior repaint of a 3-bedroom home before a sale: walls, ceilings, skirtings, and cornices, typically runs $3,800–$6,500 depending on condition and colour change. An exterior repaint adds $4,500–$8,500. Most agents recommend budgeting 1–1.5% of the expected sale price for pre-sale painting. The return is typically 3–5× that figure.
The only accurate number comes from a free on-site assessment. When it comes to the pre sale painting Brisbane vendors rely on, Lazar visits the property, identifies what will have the most impact on buyer perception, and provides a written quote within 24 hours. The kind of documentation your agent can include in the vendor report.

Most pre-sale repaints are completed within 3–5 working days from start to finish. A single-storey 3-bedroom interior: 3 days. Exterior of a standard home: 3–4 days. Combined interior and exterior: 6–8 days staged. We work around your open home schedule, if you need it done before a specific date, tell us at the quote stage and we'll plan backwards from there.
Neutral, warm whites and soft grey-beiges consistently photograph well and appeal to the widest buyer pool. Avoid bold feature colours that limit appeal. Save those for the home you're moving to. We bring colour samples to the on-site assessment and can advise on what's trending in your specific suburb's buyer demographic. Interior: Dulux Antique White USA or similar warm neutrals. Exterior: coordinate with the roof and neighbouring streetscape.
Yes. This is standard for us. We confirm your open home dates at the quote stage and work backwards to ensure the property is complete and airing well before any inspection. If a schedule changes, call us and we adjust. Real estate timelines shift. We expect it.
Painting a rental property is generally treated as a repair and maintenance expense: immediately deductible in the year it's incurred, not capitalised. Repainting between tenancies to restore the property to its original condition is the clearest case. If the painting materially improves the property beyond its original condition, it may be treated as a capital improvement. Always confirm with your accountant. We can provide a detailed invoice that specifies the work completed for your tax records.
Property managers who work with us across multiple properties get a streamlined process: same-day scheduling for vacancy repaints, consistent quality, and invoices formatted for property management systems. We don't advertise a fixed discount rate. We build a relationship that makes your job easier, which is worth more than a percentage. Contact us to discuss your property portfolio.
