When you are preparing your home for a home sale, try to create a neutral space, so that potential buyers can easily imagine themselves in this space. Begin by re-painting the inside of the home in neutral colors such as ivory and light beiges. These colors will appeal to the majority of potential buyers. You can always add a pop of color with a bed spread, a vase of fresh flowers, colorful throw pillows or an afghan.
