5 Painting Tips to Increase Resale Value

Posted on November 5, 2021

Have you been thinking about putting your home on the market this season? There is a lot of prep work that goes into selling your home. Here at CertaPro Painters® of Hilton Head, we have helped multiple homeowners get their home ready for resale. Below are a few of our painting tips for increasing resale value.

Start With a Color Consultation

We can recommend what paint colors are often sought after, and help you find a color that works for your unique space. From your kitchen to your home office, our team can completely transform any interior space.

Refresh Faded Interior Rooms

Another way that you can prepare your home interior for resale is by refreshing any faded or peeling rooms. When you have a room that is looking a bit aged, that is just one more project for your potential buyer to add to their own to-do list after moving in. Updating interior spaces with a neutral color is often a great way to increase your resale value.

Utilize a Neutral Color Palette

There is a time and place for a bold paint color, and it is typically not during the resale process. Many homebuyers will be looking for a home that is easily customizable with their current furniture and decor themes. This is why it is often best to play it safe when preparing to put your home on the real estate market.

Refinish Kitchen Cabinets

If you have more old school cabinets at your home, you can always update them with a new pop of color. A modern kitchen can truly increase your home’s list price in the Hilton Head community. Your kitchen is a frequent gathering place, so it is important that your potential buyer can see their family in that space.

Work With Local Painting Professionals

Our last tip is to work with experienced painters in your community. CertaPro Painters® of Hilton Head have renovated multiple homes in the local service area.
