everything is neutral, its neither masculine nor feminine, it's for everyone, because the hotels want EVERYONE to stay in their accommodations. This is how you want a buyer to enter into a home. You want the prospective buyer to enter and get that warm and fuzzy feeling where they want to stay indefinitely. You know that guest that never leaves, in this case that buyer that makes an offer on the spot, they don't need to look at anything else. The buyer should be envisioning entertaining their family and friends, hosting sleepovers for the kids, spending time reading a book and waking up to the smell of home cooked meals. Stage the home with them in mind. Take the emotion out of it, the home gave you lots of happy, beautiful memories and some growing pains along with shelter for all of your personal belongings and for whatever reason you have decided to move on...then move on. An effective way to achieve this is to paint all rooms in a neutral color. A wide range of neutrals is available, from soft grays to warm beiges. Painting the interior gives newness and freshness and can make the home appear more spacious. Using the same color in visibly adjacent rooms gives the house a seamless look and uninterrupted flow. Changing your window coverings to match the walls can also create an illusion of more space in addition to strategically placed mirrors. Dark or bold wall colors can dampen interest in a home if used in large spaces; however, they can occasionally be used effectively as accent colors. Stagers and real estate professionals have the same goal, to present the sellers home in the best light possible to sell the home quickly while achieving the highest possible return.
