What colors?

I'm going to be starting to paint the other rooms in the house soon. For now, what color would you paint the bedrooms if you were going to attempt to sell it in the near future? I need to paint my son's bedroom so I was thinking a nice gray color w/white trim and then I need to paint my bedroom. That I'm clueless since we still don't have bedroom furniture, so I guess it can be any color. I know not to do anything extreme since we want it to appeal to people. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Re: What colors?

I think grey for your son's room is a good idea.

As for yours I would go with a beige or tan. Then it is neutral and appeals to buyers.

Re: What colors?

If you are planning on selling soon I would go with all light neutral colors--whites, creams, and beiges. I really like Navajo White by Benjamin Moore.
Light colors make rooms look larger, and I think are also more appealing to sellers because they are easier to paint over. I personally wouldn't want a grey room, so as a buyer I may have to do a base coat before painting over it.
