Want to Sell Your Home for More Money? Paint Your Bathroom Blue

If you plan to do some updates to the house this weekend, quite possibly the best thing you could do is paint your bathroom blue... 

According to Zillow's 2017 Paint Colors Analysis, homes with blue bathrooms (especially periwinkle and powder blue) sell for an average of $5,400 more than expected. Meanwhile, homes with white, off-white or eggshell-colored bathrooms sell for $4,035 less than similar homes. 

While the study found that bathroom color seemed to have the biggest impact on prices, it also found that exterior colors can make a difference. Houses painted "greige" (a gray-beige mix) sold for $3,496 more than comparable homes painted in tan or medium-brown tones. A home with a navy-blue or slate-gray front door was also found to sell for $1,514 more.
