Be consistent with the hardware
This is something that buyers don’t necessarily notice, but it will absolutely register on their subconcious mind. Many times we see homes that have a combination of door knobs that are a mixture of shiny brass and polished chrome. We see doors where the handles and the hinges are different colors. In the kitchen, we’ll see light fixtures over the table that are oil rubbed bronze, and the fixtures over the working area of the kitchen are shiny brass. Then the cabinet handles are yet another color.
We also see homes with the light switch plates and outlet plates different colors, and designs are different.
Think about coordinating all of these items. Pick a color and a style and stay with it. Trust me – prospective buyers will notice if they are not consistent, and will appreciate when the homes are consistent.
