Description

Investing $50 in a can of paint can boost your home’s sale price by more than $5,000 when the time comes to list it on the market. 
 
Zillow recently did a study that compared sold homes and their paint colors and found that having a light blue or light periwinkle master bathroom can increase your home’s price by $5,400. There are other colors that increase the value of other rooms, too.
 
Light sage was found to be a good color for master bedrooms and light tan and taupe in bathrooms were found to increase sales price as well. Light yellows in the kitchen and light purple in the dining room had the same effect.

“Certain colors can boost your home’s value by more than $5,000.”
 
Similarly, certain colors can detract from your home’s sale price. Stay away from terracotta colors and all-white kitchens to avoid this issue.

If you have any questions about how this plays into the Orlando market, give me a call or send me an email. I’d be happy to tell you more.
