(They intentionally paint neutral walls in some seriously bold - and seriously ugly, IMO - colors specifically for the purpose of resale. I would walk in thinking, "The first thing we'll have to do is paint over these walls"! lol But apparently the "average" buyer is not that logical. If it looks nice, they buy.)Rachel R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01598574256854766532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-19736733498330687932009-04-13T08:04:00.000-05:002009-04-13T08:04:00.000-05:00This is absolutely lovely!

We just sold our house and our realtor told us that the yellow dining room was a no-no. We had neutralized the rest of the house and refused to do anyomre. For some reason I took her comments personally (hormones)and felt so vindicated when I could show her an article in our local paper that yellow is the new "in" color. Our house sold in less than 3 weeks even in this economy! So I say enjoy the color and forget about resale!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10000398857513752852noreply@blogger.com
