Paint color is such an important part of the home.  It also has the biggest bang for your buck as far as transforming a space.  You do need to choose very carefully, however, when it comes to the color.  The wrong color can really distract a potential buyer and make it hard for them to envision themselves in your home.  Here are some tips on color and also what to paint and refresh in your home.

1. Your front door – If you’re looking for a pop of color, your front door is the best place to do it. A vibrant red or bright friendly blue can add some personality to your home and appeal to potential buyers.
2. Interior walls – Neutral tones are key on interior walls. Your goal is to create a blank canvas that helps potential buyers envision themselves living there. You’ll want your interior paint color to be uniform throughout the home.
3. Color – The biggest color trends right now are all things neutral. Whites, grays, and dusty taupes are all the rage. These colors are a big hit with buyers because they’re versatile and go with any decor and style.

4. Texture and finish – A stain or semi-gloss finish will be your best bet in high-traffic areas (like kitchens and bathrooms) that may need regular cleaning. Flat and matte finishes work best for ceilings and low-traffic walls like living rooms and bedrooms.
