I want to paint my house so I've taken a photo of it and i want to photoshop paint it the same color first, how can I select all my walls (easly, not perfect but nice enough) so I can paint them. Right now I have to do very small sections at a tiomedue to shadows etc

Use the polygonal lasso tool to select a wall, then right click selection and layer via copy. This will separate each wall, allows more flexibility, multiple colours, turn layers on and off etc.

If the walls already have a reasonable amount of colour you can probably go Image > Adjust > Hue/Saturation and adjust the colour using hue.
If the walls are closer to white then you can add colour using Image > Adjust > Photo Filter

Both ways should maintain natural shadows and highlights of the building.
