Renovation Aloha's Tristyn and Kamohai Kalama share the front color you need to sell your home – they explain, 'it's one of the areas you can go a little bolder'

The front door is the first impression people get of your home, so its color is of utmost importance. Whether you go with a neutral or a pop of color, the shade sets the tone for the design of your house. It has profound impacts on curb appeal and selling price.

Luckily for you, Homes & Gardens interviewed renovation and house flipping experts Tristyn and Kamohai Kalama of HGTV's 'Renovation Aloha' to learn about the front door colors that add the most value to a home from the experts.

Though their answers vary, they have one thing in common: they prioritize colors that make an impact. When it comes to first impressions, standing out is a good thing.

On the topic of welcoming front door colors, Tristyn tells Homes & Gardens, 'A pop of color is always fun and nice! An earthy tone - a green, rust, a blue - or something that nods to the original color on the exterior or the color found on the interior of the home. Every single house calls for a different door color, it's one of the areas you can go a little bolder and go with a pop of color to make the home stand out.'

Kamohai agrees with her opinion on front door design, and says that the entire front of the home is equally important.

He explains: 'When it comes to selling your home - curb appeal is everything, Landscaping and overall exterior aesthetics play a huge role. Buyers usually make their decision within seconds of seeing the outside of the property. So, adding a fun paint color to a front door is an economical way to add an accent to the front facade of a house.'

Like many couples, Tristyn and Kamohai are not making choices about paint colors in their homes unilaterally. Instead, they work together to merge interior design styles, and make compromises that work for both of them.

Tristyn states: 'Every decision we must agree upon they are joint decisions, not singular. We lean on each other when one of us doesn't know the right direction or is having a hard time. Of course, we have disagreements, we are different human beings who think differently and have different skillsets, but we love and respect each other at the end of the day, and that comes first.'

'Luckily, we normally are in alignment with renovation and design decisions and overall investment decisions when it comes to real estate, and I think that's why we work so well,' adds Kamohai. 'We meet regularly to make sure we are both still marching in the same direction. When you both want the same things and have the same goals/agendas it's easy to overcome disagreements or bad days.'

Front door trends come and go, but a classic color that increases curb appeal is forever. Tristyn and Kamohai Kalama know best.
