When will all of you stop living in HOAs you saved for a home and then allow somebody on some committee to tell you how to do any simple thing on the home you bought with your money. I would defy any HOA person to tell the difference in those whites on sunny day .

Our HOA prefers adjacent homes not be the same color, but we are hoping they will still allow us to move forward.

You quantifiably do not have a problem. BenM Swiss Coffee might as well be White Dove when applied exterior. The quantifiable difference between the two is extremely small. You can compare factual color attributes outlined in pink.

BenM Swiss Coffee is comparable, you're not making any concessions with it.

However, I think they did you a favor; I would choose Oyster White out of the options available (outlined in orange). It has the most chroma (orange star). And that is what you want in that region. I specify color in Phoenix, similar intense sun situation. OW is the only white on that list worth testing IMO. We have done exteriors in BenM Swiss Coffee and it always shows up more white that homeowner expected because the chip and even the Samplize shows up warmer and creamier than the reality of painted exterior walls.

Julie, very lucky to get Lori’s feedback!👍🏻
