[quote=Anonymous]I am currently actively looking to buy. I can't tell you how many recently painted houses I have seen that are some shade of gray. It appears to be the new "it" color, and I find most renditions to be too dark. If you must paint using gray I would find the softest shade available. Even so, with poorly light rooms it will be darkening. Do not paint the walls gray when using a warm-toned wall to wall carpet. If the carpet stays, then paint the walls a warm tone. Not everyone has furniture and accessories to show off the gray appropriately. Beige/tan and most shades of yellow are warm colors due to the yellow (duh). I'd think as a seller you'd want people walking through to think happy thoughts about your house, regardless of whether they will immediately repaint or not. Alternatively, plain old white -- especially linen white -- shows well. [/quote]
