Choosing the right Paint Colors when Selling Your Home

If you’re planning on selling your home and moving on to the next chapter in your life, it can be an exciting time for you and your family. One of the many things you can do to increase its value and make it more appealing to prospective buyers is to focus your homes paint colors. By choosing the proper colors for the exterior and interior you can make your home look more aesthetically appealing, roomier, and well-maintained. Additionally, getting a professional painting service to do the work makes more sense. Here is what we mean.

Exterior Paint Colors

Choosing the appropriate colors for the exterior of your home can be more important than ensuring you have a well-painted interior. Remember, when selling your home, the exterior is what all prospective buyers are going to see initially. Statistical research has shown that a home exterior painted in grayish beige tone often commands a higher asking price than ones painted in other shades.

If your home contains several stylish architectural features, combine pale neutral colors with dark accents. This will draw the buyer’s eye to the most outstanding features and attractive elements. Although you may be tempted to use brighter, attention-grabbing colors, such as greens and yellows, gray-toned neutral colors will appeal to the widest buying audience out there.

Interior Paint Colors

One of the best aspects about owning a home is that you can use your unique vision to create an expression of your personality. However, that being said, prospective buyers don’t want to see a home that is tailored to the current owner. They want to see a home that makes it easier to envision what it would be like for them to be living in it, not you. So stick with a cooler neutral palette for the interior of your home. That way you can accessorize and put a new décor together that will go with this color palette.

Again, statistical studies have shown that home interiors painted in the light blues and pale grays end of the color spectrum sold for higher prices homes with boldly colored interiors or warmer neutral shades such as pinks and yellows. Remember, lighter, more neutral colors have the tendency to make rooms appear larger and more open while at the same time being able to avoid the sterility of walls painted pure white.
