Pizzazz at the Entryway
A home’s entryway creates the first impression. As you, the Realtor, bring a potential buyer to the property, that bold color makes a strong statement. The color should complement the style and design of home, but can be more intense. Here are some good entry colors that you can suggest to your clients to spice up the entry and add some excitement and pizzazz!
A word of caution. If there is a homeowner’s association, make sure you check the HOA rules before advising your client to paint!
Peacock Blue—Works well with wood finishes and artwork framed in gold, silver, black or white. Peacock blue goes with walls that are neutral.
Black—Few people are brave enough to paint interior walls black, but it has a dramatic effect in the entry, especially when it has a gloss to reflect light.
Coral—This is a mix of pink and orange. It is a warm color, flatters most skin tones, and works well with warm woods, silver, chrome and mirrors.
Chartreuse—This eye-popping mix of yellow and green looks good with warm woods, shades of gray and metallic
Red—This is a classic and complements almost every decorating style.
