Real Estate Rant & Rave: Can Everyone Please Make their Street Address Numbers CLEAR AND VISIBLE??? Thank You!

Address numbers Design Within ReachI have a pet peeve: I hate it when I cannot find addresses, be it on commercial buildings or residential homes. One of the first things you do when you market your home for sale is make sure people can damn well FIND it! That means clear numbers somewhere where they can be seen, not covered by bushes, plants or flowers. Street addresses should be clearly painted on curbs. In the Park Cities and similarly compact communities, cars and trucks usually line the curb so it is nearly impossible to find a home address. You need numbers on the door or brick or somewhere, large numbers that can be seen from 50 plus feet away. And you need them on the curb.House numbers 1 House-Numbers

I just do not understand why people put their house on the market, and then fail to make their address prominent. The address should be prominent on ANY home, on the market or not. See how easy it is to integrate into the style of the home?

And that, my friends, is my Real Estate Rant & Rave: what’s your’s???
