Paint Colors To Avoid When Selling

Larry Doss Thursday, January 2, 2025

An Excerpt from NAR - author Melissa Dittmann Tracey -
Rethink a red-painted living room or dining area; red is the most off-putting color, according to a survey of home staging and design professionals conducted by the home remodeling site Fixr.com. “Red is an extremely strong color and may not be to everybody’s taste,” the study notes.
Fixr’s Paint & Color Trends 2024 report flags the following as the most off-putting colors to home buyers:
• Red: 53%
• Lime green: 53%
• Bright yellow: 40%
• Mustard yellow: 19%
• Pink: 10%
• Turquoise: 9%
Instead of splashing interiors in bright hues, home stagers and designers say they like to use color strategically to warm up a space and even make it appear more spacious.
