Got Paint?
Pretty amazing what a bit of paint can do to make a home look more appealing. Of course, there’s a bit of knowledge about design and color that is the real engine behind this great face lift.
One of the biggest bangs for your home selling buck is a new coat of paint to lighten and brighten up a room. No other update is as cost effective and dramatic when selling a home. While I personally love a color filled home while dwelling, for selling it often becomes one of the biggest objections however it's one of the easiest to overcome.
Whether you do it yourself or hire a professional, if painting is recommended by a home staging professional or your Realtor, it's best to do it before taking the photos and listing!
Here's a recent example of a home in the Castle Hills area of North Texas in the high $600 K price range whose staging to dwell to staging to sell transformation took it from a rather Gothic style "castle" to a castle intended for a King!
When you're staging to dwell color is great, but this was too dark and too personal a choice for most buyer's tastes in this traditional home buyer market.
Staged to sell! Paint is often the biggest bang for your buck and gives a great ROI. Buyers often only know what they see and can't imagine the way it could be. Don't take a wait and see approach for this easy fix!
