It needs a new door.
Should I do this or leave it to new owner? Its absolutely honking so worried it might put people off. Rest is solid but needs painting.

would you respray before sale? Cant imagine id recoup THAT money!?

A number of tratterers on er have used the right paint and a brush of mini roller to paint their biscuit tin. A lot who buy tratterrers are looking for a project or not bothered about looks.

If it were mine and I was trying to sell it I would make sure it's clean inside and out. A tratterer probably wouldn't notice if it stunk of pi55. In general... anything will sell if it's clean and priced at market value.

Sell as it is and let the buyer use the door as a bargaining point, that way everyone goes away happy

Luck of the draw. If buyer wants project may prefer as is, if not need to price in your cost.

You could mention in sale that door is forled off from rain but will do it if buyer wants the extra?

Ask yourself if it would fetch more than it would cost to repair it?
If it's in your financial interest to fix it, then do it. If not, or you just can't be arsed, don't.
