Silver sage. It's one of the pottery barn colors. It's neutral, but not boring.

That's what we're painting our kitchen right now.

Basically, what everyone else has said. Nicb's suggestion is good or what Ariel said. I also like a nice, light grey. It's neutral and can easily be accented with decor.

This thread just cracked me up. I don't let DH have a say in a lot of choices in our house now for this same reason. I just do it myself and he can see it when he gets home.

Benjamin Moore sag harbor gray. It's beautiful. All the major home improvement stores have the Benjamin Moore colors so you don't have to buy the expensive paint.

Silver lake is a grey we have. Love it. Grey is one of the "in" colors right now. Happy painting. Happy selling!

Painting is a PITA, but it makes such a huge difference to buyers for a relatively low investment (other than tired, achey muscles from painting!) I'm sure you've thought of this already, but for resale value light, neutral colors and white trim are a pretty safe bet. We replaced wood panelling with drywall when we moved in and it was a but of expense. I've seen panelling primed and painted before and it looks decent.

This. Realtors say neutral is best because it appeals to the masses and anyone can see themselves there. Also even if it is not their top pick, it is usually something people can live with. Where as the black wall with bright blue maybe not so much. 

I personally think its crazy that some people can't see past paint color. I mean really painting isn't that hard and if you really don't want to do it yourself, hire someone its not that expensive!

I do like nicb13 color too.

I know. He told me most of them were the "oops" colors in the back of the hardware that people didn't want.

Aye.

Im going through this thread going "no, just no!"

[gretchenweiners7]

Was your DH drunk when he chose those colors?! If it makes you feel better I'm not sure my H would choose much better. Good luck with painting

TRY LIVING HERE.

[kelsbels]

Make sure the house has fresh paint, is clean and depersonalize and declutter! People cannot look past other people's things and taste.

Haha, yes.  And on a sort of related note - are the "love tit" sayings changing every day? I realized after I posted that comment that it made absolutely no sense to anyone who hadn't read what it says today.  Mah bad.

Yikes! I can't decide if that makes it better or worse

[breandmikebaby]

Uo? I like painting! If you lived close to me I would come help you.

[TheMooseIsLoose]

We just painted our whole top floor grey with a darker grey accent wall. I love it. Your furniture color doesn't matter at all because everything goes with it. Big white trim. I agree that painting out paneling white is ok, buuuut, replacing it completely is better.
My bathroom has white wainscoting with chocolate brown walls above and teal accents in the shower curtain, bath mats and towels.

[mrssinner402]

GUISE!!

[alfibet]

So much better! I like it

[mrscjmb]

It looks 100% better! Wtg! Can't wait to see the other transformations.

[cantisa]

Stop lol why was the trim anything but white?!

No idea! DHs taste was awful when he bought it 9 years ago.
