Color is the most critical aspect of making your home appealing to buyers. Wall color can be used to enhance and alter the quality of light, make a room seem more spacious or intimate, and create a stimulating or calming environment -- one that your buyer would be proud to own. The new mood in wall color is to move away from the "sterile white" or "blah beige" that most sellers think of when I advise them to "neutralize" their color palette.
Did you know that shades of gold is the color that sells homes the most? Our professional stagers love using Benjamin Moore's Restrained Gold for the walls. It is warm and earthy and portrays a feeling of comfort and elegance. If you visit a recently built development community, you will notice that rich chocolate browns are also in vogue. However, I would incorporate rich brown in your room decor or fabrics and paint the walls a warm carmel or use cream tones. Our accredited staging consultants(ASP) work with clients to balance color with existing furniture and introduce accent colors to achieve a coordinated style. Painting is the least costly improvement to homes which provides the highest return on your investment.
