Fix these “beige” flags before buyers walk in
“Beige flags” aren’t dealbreakers, but they can make buyers hesitate without even realizing why. These small details don’t scream that something is wrong, yet they also don’t signal that a home is well cared for. Things like personal items in the bathroom, dead lightbulbs, sticky doors, mismatched hardware, or too many collectibles can subtly affect how a home feels. The good news is that a few simple updates can quickly improve a buyer’s first impression.
