Two Situations in Which You Should Use Luxury Paints When Preparing a Property for Sale
Homeowners often repaint certain areas of their properties when preparing them for sale to ensure their homes look their best when buyers come to view them. If this is something you're planning to do with your own home and one of the situations below applies to you, consider using luxury paints for this process.
You want to make a feature wall to distract people from a room's imperfection
If there's a room in the property that has an imperfection that you cannot resolve due to the costs or complexity that would be involved in fixing it, then one of the best ways to make this imperfection less obvious could be to make a feature wall, using luxury paint.
For example, if the rooms' window is tiny and doesn't let much light in, you could apply some luxury paint in a beautiful, vivid colour to the wall across from this window so that when buyers walk into the room, their attention will be instantly drawn to this bright-coloured wall, instead of the excessively small window across the way from it. However, it's important to use high-quality, luxury paint for this, as, if you were to slap a cheap paint in a garish hue on this wall, it might only distract people's attention from the room's tiny window because it makes them focus on how difficult it might be to cover up this cheap-looking feature wall.
By creating this feature wall with some luxury paint in a vivid but tasteful colour— ideally, having the paintwork done by a reputable painter—both the finish and the hue will be striking for all the right reasons and will be more likely to make people appreciate the room's beauty instead of focusing on its imperfection.
You want the property to have a luxury aesthetic
If you want the property to be viewed as luxurious by potential buyers, then you should ensure that any painters you hire to repaint its walls use luxury paints for this process. Whilst you might think that people will not notice the type of paint that's on the walls, this is not the case; when people view a property that's advertised as a luxury home (and which is priced accordingly), they set their expectations higher than they would if they were viewing a standard residential property and pay greater attention to the finer details.
You can expect people who come to your viewings to examine your home's painted walls closely and, if the paint looks cheap (for example, if lacks the smooth finish or the tonal intensity of a luxury paint), many of them will be able to spot this and may conclude that the property is not quite as luxurious as you have advertised and might, a result of this, lose interest in it.
