Important Rooms to Focus On 

Kitchen

The kitchen is a big selling point of any home. This is because many people spend a lot of time in their kitchen. Update your kitchen’s paint with bright and cool colors like a dark blue, light green, teal or even orange.

Living Room

The living room is used as a relaxing area so you want to consider painting the living room with cool shades. Since it is a calming atmosphere, think about using shades of grey and teal. You can also add a touch of bright yellow, red or orange.

Bathrooms

Just like the kitchen, the bathrooms are very important selling points. Attractive bathrooms are going to increase your chances of selling your home at the right price. Stick to paint colors like greens and blues since they go with many things and can easily decorate it. Plus, features like silver faucets will go well with these colors.
