What Will Be Covered:

Paint colors are what can make or break the value of your home. As a homeowner, having a trendy house color that is lovely to look at help to increase the value of your home, which can, in turn, make you more money if you’re deciding to sell your home. It can also make your neighbors feel jealous of you and therefore they will paint their house as well!

You want your home to have a warm and welcoming feeling, which is why we put together 9 colors, interior and exterior, that will help you sell your home at a higher price:

Classic Tan with White Trim

Tan is a classic color to be used on the exterior of your home and is a great color to help sell your home. Tan goes great when a lighter tan color is combined with a darker hue of tan. The extra white on the fascia and posts give the house more of a realistic feeling. Color used on this house is Stone Lion from Sherwin Williams.

  1. My cousin has been thinking about painting his home because it is a really ugly black. I’ll be sure to tell him about how tan colors can look really nice especially when combined while a darker shade because it will give it a more realistic feeling. Having the home painted by a professional could be really useful for him.
