Is it off-putting to see a white ceramic tile in one room only to be jolted by dark hardwood in another? If you\u2019re thinking about selling your house, it may be time to consider putting down new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prestige-floors.com\/remodeling.html\">flooring<\/a> or creating a look that appears cohesive throughout the rooms within your home. If you don\u2019t know where to start, read on to discover what options are available that can make this process easier and worth the investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flooring Colors: What Do Homebuyers Prefer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although everyone has their own style and design preferences, a majority of homebuyers want their floors to appear more natural and \u201ctimeless\u201d than bold and overly patterned. In fact, research shows that neutral-colored tiles and natural hardwood are the clear winners among those looking to purchase a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also entices buyers to spend more, which can be a motive for homeowners to take on this kind of project when looking to increase the value of their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips to Make Updating Your Floors Easier and Eye-Catching<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to really impress those who may be touring your home or attending an open house, make sure to choose floors that make a statement. This doesn\u2019t necessarily mean choosing loud or vibrant designs, but instead, catching the eye of those interested in buying and who will appreciate not having to redo the floors upon moving in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The following tips can help make this potentially beneficial project worth the investment:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure your floors blend seamlessly with your furniture and existing d\u00e9cor elements, as this creates a beautiful aesthetic that flows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Instead of replacing old carpet with new, consider laying hardwood (even on top of carpet). Many homebuyers want this type of flooring and will pay a premium price for it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>When placing different types of flooring down in rooms that flow into each other, opt for complementary colors so the eye is not jolted when entering a new space.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don\u2019t hesitate to consider more affordable options if hardwood or luxury materials are out of your price range. Many flooring options, like vinyl or engineered hardwood, can be made to look similar to the real thing but are much less expensive to put down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While you may like brighter, bolder colors throughout your home, it\u2019s best to keep things neutral if you want to get the highest price when selling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Prestige Floors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to sell your home but need help to create a cohesive look when it comes to your floors?
