Posted by Kathy Landstra in General Info, Home Sellers on September 23, 2009
“Pepto Bismol” pink tile, high gloss walls and dark painted trim top this list of “Biggest Losers: 20 Home Design Features That Send Buyers Running.”
The top five from the list:
- Dated and excessively bold or dark paint and tile colors, such as “Pepto Bismol” pink, avocado green, deep plum, or jet black.
- Lacquered or high-gloss painted walls that are expensive to repaint and show all defects.
- Painted trim that’s very dark-and costly to remove.
- Wallpaper, which is a lot of work (and potentially expensive) to remove.
- Kitchens that lack any dining space.
