Choose Paint Colors Wisely if You're Thinking of Selling Your Home

Pepto Bismol pink. Toothpaste Foam green. Pastel peach. What do those colors say to you? Chances are, if you walked into a house you were thinking of buying and were confronted with these colors on the walls, you'd have a hard time picturing your own furnishings and wall decor adorning the rooms. This is why the customary advice has been to paint walls in a neutral pallet before hanging a "For Sale" sign in the front yard.

A study that ended in 2016 took a look at houses that had sold the fastest. Few of those houses had neutral walls. Instead those houses popped with just the right hint of color. If you are thinking of selling your home, you don't have to live with boring walls for weeks or months while you are waiting for the right buyer to come along. The following colors may be a great option:

1. Yellow: Houses that sold with the highest premiums had kitchens painted in creamy hues of yellow. Yellow is a cheerful color that tells potential buyers that the current owners have an eye for design and probably took care of the home.

2. Sage Green: Earthy pallets are in at the moment and lend a bit of class that you don't get with neutrals. Sage green is a lovely color with just the right hue for a living room or bedroom.

3. Dove Gray: Another great color that will tell potential buyers that you cared about your home is the right shade of gray. Gray gives the impression that your home has been well-cared for even if you let things slip a bit.

While you don't have to paint your walls in creams and whites, you do need to avoid dark colors. Dark colors rarely fare well when it comes to selling a home. The same can be said of light gray and bare white.

If you are considering selling your Fayetteville home or buying a new one, make sure you have the experts on your side. Call Dottie & Kate today to get started
