Your front door..

Your front door is one of the first features that prospective buyers will see when they drive up to your home.  Most buyers have already looked at the photos on the home’s listing before choosing which homes they would like to view. Your front door makes a first impression that could either make your home stand out in the crowd or fade away, possibly making the home look dated.
The colour that you select to paint your door should depend on the style of your home as well as complement the colour of your brick and trim.

There is something to be said about "red" doors.  They stand out and create an inviting and classic look.

The “red” door can have many meanings:

In Feng Shui, a red door means Welcome and positive energy.

In traditional America, if someone saw a red front door, they would know it was a safe and welcome place to rest.

In Catholicism, the red door means protection, signifying that beyond the door was holy, and a sanctuary from evil.

In Scotland, a red door often meant that the owner's mortgage was paid off. 

In Ireland, a red door was thought to ward off ghosts or evil spirits.
