These Paint Colors are Scientifically Proven to Increase the Value of Your Home

If you’re considering putting your home on the market (or you just want to be able to brag that you’ve got the best looking home on the block), you’re probably searching for every home-improvement that’s worth it to increase the value of your home and property. But did you know that something as subtle as the tone of paint you choose can affect how much your home is worth?

In a study by Zillow, one of the top websites for home buyers to gauge the worth and value of homes for sale, researchers compared the final selling prices of over 32,000 homes against their paint colors of choice and the results were pretty shocking. Before you call your our experts for exterior painting in Lower Merion, PA, consider adding one of these colorful features scientifically proven to increase the value of your home!

● A gray or blue front door. The shade of your front door has been found to have a bigger impact on buyers than most homeowners expect, so consider asking your painting contractors in Philadelphia, PA to choose a nice shade of blue for the door and take in an average of $1,514 extra when the home sells.

● A “greige” exterior. By far the best color for home value, “greige,” the mix of gray and beige, netted homeowners an average of $1,526 extra when compared with homes of other colors located in economically similar conditions.

● A light blue kitchen. Want another reason to pop open a can of blue paint? Light blue kitchens brought sellers an average of $1,800 extra during the final home offer. Experts agree that this is because blue is seen by most buyers as a welcoming and inviting color, better allowing them to envision themselves living in your home.
