If you’re trying to sell your home, you’re probably researching everything you possibly can to see what appeals to buyers. While you will never know what appeals to every buyer, there are trends in buying that give you excellent insight as to what buyers are looking for and why. Neutrals are long desired by buyers because they require nothing from the buyer right away except to move in – everything else can come later. Neutrals are colors that can go with practically any color scheme or variation of design. For years, many people thought that neutrals were only shades of beige and white. However, in recent years, other colors have been added, included a light yellow, a light brown and what people fall in love with the most – the color gray.

Why Gray Is The Best Neutral

It’s a “cool” shade, literally, which makes a room airier and seem bigger
There’s virtually no color that gray doesn’t go well with
there are many shades of gray, to allow for variation
many modern kitchens and bathrooms already have a gray theme
It has a timeless and rich look

Gray is a shade which can cause a room to reflect light and look bigger than it is. This is especially true is it is a pale or light shade of gray.

Gray is versatile; it looks gorgeous with pink, aqua, red, black, blue, purple, and any color in between. No matter how outrageous someone’s furniture is, chances are, gray will not clash a bit and will actually be flattering.

From slate to charcoal, you can use many shades of gray throughout a home to add interest and inhibit boredom. A few small areas of a dark gray for dramatic interest may really catch a buyer’s eye.

Almost all modern kitchen appliances are stainless steel. Gray is a gorgeous and clean-looking component to any modern kitchen, and any other accent color can be thrown in as well.

Gray is the shade of stone and river rock, so it already has a place in society that is timeless and known as rich and important. Give it a try when you’re giving your house a makeover – your pending sales will thank you!
