Is your home going on the market soon? You’ll want to make all of the small repairs and improvements in order to make it appealing and get your asking price. One of the easiest ways to do this is to paint certain rooms or the exterior. If you’re looking into selling your house, read below to find out what rooms you should invest in painting to get it sold faster.

Is it Really Beneficial to Paint Before Selling?

Most people who walk into your open house are viewing it with a pair of fresh eyes, and for them, it looks like a blank canvas. While decorations, furniture, and art have a huge impact on making your open house look more “livable”, it’s also important that it feels fresh, updated, and newer. After all, nobody wants to buy a home that doesn’t feel comfortable and welcoming.

One of the most budget-friendly and cost-effective ways to do this is by painting either the outside of your home to boost its curb-appeal or certain rooms in the house. In fact, something as small as updating the color trends to make them more modern could significantly increase its price tag.

What Rooms Should You Repaint to Sell Faster?

Depending on what type of buyer you believe will be more likely to snap up your home, you’ll want to consider repainting any of the following rooms:

  • The Kitchen: Many people, especially those who love to cook and entertain, view their kitchen as the heart of their home. By updating the color scheme in this area and painting the kitchen cabinets and walls with colors that inject personality into the space and make it feel more relaxing, like sage and dark blues, you could easily reel in a buyer.
  • The Living Room: For bigger families, the living room is somewhere that they’ll likely be spending most of their time and creating memories. A simple, fresh coat of paint that features cooler, on-trend colors like teals and grays, can make the space feel clean and welcoming.
  • The Nursery or Child’s Bedroom: If your home is the perfect size for a younger couple that’s expecting or even looking to build their family in the next couple of years, decorating the smallest room to look like a nursery or child’s bedroom will feature your home’s ability to grow with the family.

Painting to sell your house may seem like it’s a waste of money since you won’t be able to enjoy it, but it’s not! Color trends change all the time, and a fresh coat of paint can be the difference between an offer below your asking value or one that’s higher.
