Did you know that colors can affect your emotions? Although you might not be aware of the impact, colors can drastically affect the appearance of just about anything, and homes are no exception.
As a prospective buyer, you may be aware that the color of a homes exterior could affect its price. Much of the return on investment from painting depends on the homes size, price range, and total cost of the project. Although painting the interior of the house has a higher return, the exterior’s return is also significant.
Popular exterior colors such as those with a mix of gray and beige can bring in a higher return on investment however, it’s also important to consider the homes architecture. For example, brick homes may need just the right touch of accent color to give it the perfect curb appeal. White is another common choice since it makes the exterior look more expansive and attracts more light.
Door color can also affect a homes rate of return. According to a recent paint analysis, homes with darker front doors such as blue or gray can attract a higher selling price.
A homes exterior color choice can ultimately help you determine if you want to avoid stepping inside or dive in and explore its’ upside potential. Colors are an easy way to change curb appeal while also allowing you to create your own style. If you’re ready to take the plunge and purchase a home, let a trusted real estate professional help you achieve that goal.
