Zillow shares information on links between front door colors and home sales. During the reported study actual and potential home buyers answered survey questions: “Homes with a front door painted slate blue — a chalky light blue-gray color – received the top overall scores. Actual and prospective buyers were more likely to want to purchase the home and, on average, would be willing to offer an estimated $1,537 more. . . . A black front door was associated with the highest offer price, with buyers saying they would be willing to pay, on average, $6,449 more for a home with this high-contrast front door. . . . Some study participants described homes with a pale pink front door as ‘kind of shabby looking’ and would be willing to pay, on average, $6,516 less than expected. Cement gray front doors received the lowest overall score. This color fell flat with the lowest purchase intention, and on average, actual and prospective buyers would offer $1,236 less for a home with such a door.”
