The Neutral Cabinet Color That May Drive Homebuyers Away
By ZOE NOLZ
Even something as small as your kitchen cabinet color can hurt your home’s resale value. If you’re planning on putting your house on the market, here are some things to consider.
Steer clear of cabinets featuring overly warm neutrals, such as tan or gold overtones, as they can deter potential buyers. These colors are also overpowering and hard to correct.
If you’re looking to freshen up your cabinets before listing your home, try leaning more towards cool, chic colors, or earthy tones rather than gold or tan neutrals.
You can also paint them white. The basic color will let the cabinets fade into the background as the rest of the kitchen takes the spotlight, giving your space a more modern look.
Subtle greens are a great color alternative too. These low-key, organic, earthy hues never go out of style because they reflect nature and complement living spaces well.
