Preparing your home to list for sale on the real estate market can be a stressful time for many homeowners. If you are listing during a time when the market is favoring the buyer you may have to do a little extra maintenance and updates to boost your curb appeal and bring on a quick sale. One of the easiest ways to freshen up the look of your home is to add a new coat of paint to both the exterior and interiors. Many real estate professionals will even advise you on the best colors of paint to add to the appeal of your home.

Enhance your Curb Appeal

You may be saying “but I just painted a few years ago” and while that may be true it doesn’t take long when exposed to the elements for paint to begin to chip, dull, or even bubble from moisture and heat. Investing a little money into a new paint job will give your home a new construction look that costs relatively little compared to the return you will receive once your house is sold. The best exterior colors for selling your home are classic neutrals like taupe, light grays or blues, and off white.

Update your Inside

So what about the interior walls? Adding trendy yet still neutral shades like greys, beige, or even some shades of teal can perk of the inside of your living space without being off putting or overwhelming to buyers. New paint is a great way to brighten up your home and create the look of an updated and well-maintained home.
