How to Increase Your House Value with Paint

Expert Advice & Painting Ideas

When considering selling your home or simply enhancing its aesthetic and market value, few investments are as cost-effective and transformative as a fresh coat of paint. Haymes Paint, Australia's go-to for premium quality paints, offers a wide range of products that can help elevate your home’s appearance and increase its market appeal. In this guide, we explore which products can help you get the most value out of your house. 

The Impact of Paint on Property Value

Real estate professionals agree that a quality paint job is one of the simplest and most effective ways to boost the value of your property, with many claiming that painting your home can potentially increase its value by up to 5%. A fresh coat of paint, both inside and out, creates an inviting and clean ambience that resonates with potential buyers. 

A comprehensive approach to painting increases the value the most. Freshly painted interiors in the right colours can make rooms appear larger and more inviting or even brighter, while a fresh exterior elevates curb appeal by giving the property a new feel. Don't forget the details like doors and trims, which often have visible wear and tear that can be easily covered up with premium specialised paint.

Choosing the Right Colours

Selecting the right paint colours is crucial in appealing to a broad range of buyers. Neutral tones, such as off-white, beige, and grey, are universally appealing and can make spaces appear larger and more inviting. Explore our selection of whites and neutrals to find the perfect hue for your home.

Whilst neutral colours and fresh paint generally have the most mass appeal, accent walls can be another great choice to add to buyer interest and encourage a quick sale. Adding a pop of colour to your room(s) is a great way for your property to stand out in the market to prospective buyers, if you’re unsure of a colour check out our  A5 Colour Swatches or a 500ml Sample Pot to test the paint before committing.

When to Paint

The ideal time to paint your house is before putting it on the market. Even if your current paint is in good condition, a fresh coat can significantly enhance the appeal of your home, making it stand out in listings and during viewings. Consider updating key areas like window sills, trims, and the front door for a strong first impression.
