The three primary items to be aware of when readying a home for sale are:
1. Paint color
2. Flooring
3. Decluttering
Paint color can make a statement in a home and is all about personal taste. When readying a home for sale, it is important to appeal to a mass audience. Don’t be surprised if your realtor suggests more neutral grays, taupes, creams for your walls when readying your home for sale. The photo attached to the blog was painted a soft grey. The original color was a bright peach. This home sold in 1 week and the buyer specifically asked for the paint color name at settlement because she loved it on the walls and wanted to paint other rooms this same color! These soft/neutral colors appeal to the broadest audience. It is one of the easiest and least expensive items you can change in your home to make it more appealing to buyers. To help sell your home in the least amount of time and assist in getting you a price you are seeking, paint color is very important!
