Would you paint your house for your team?

Passionate sports fans worldwide are painting their homes in team colours, a trend seen from Australia to New Zealand, where Tonga rugby league fans famously painted an Ellerslie street red.

While a bold statement of loyalty, this practice is unlikely to add value when selling. The standard advice for sellers is to use neutral colours to appeal to the widest range of buyers. A team-themed exterior can be a significant deterrent, so consider less permanent options for game day.
