Tye Homes Northwest

2026 has brought warmth, depth, and a little nostalgia back into our homes. 🎨

Cool grays have made way for warm, earthy neutrals that feel grounded and inviting. Color drenching is turning rooms into immersive, high-impact spaces. And those soft, playful ’50s pastels are officially having a moment again.

Whether you’re craving calm, character, or a bold refresh, this year’s paint trends are all about creating spaces that feel personal, layered, and full of life.

Before your home hits the market, it helps to know what buyers may notice during inspection.

A pre-listing inspection gives sellers a chance to prepare, repair, disclose, or price with more confidence before surprises show up under contract.

Thinking about selling? Let’s talk through whether a pre-listing inspection is the right move for your home.

🏡 Softer textures, warmer palettes, and spaces that feel collected over time — luxury design is moving in a more relaxed, personal direction.

In my latest blog post, “Design Trends for 2026 & Beyond: Softer, Lived-In Luxury,” I’m sharing the shifts I’m seeing in interiors and how to bring this elevated-but-effortless look into your own home.

The first 30 seconds of a showing matter more than most sellers realize. Buyers are noticing the smell, the entry, the light, the cleanliness, and the little maintenance issues that make a home feel either well cared for or risky.

The good news? Most of these are fixable before you list.

Save this before you prep your home for market.

🏡Analog spaces are having a moment, and honestly, it makes sense.

After so much time on screens, there’s something grounding about creating small places at home that invite you to slow down.

A reading chair. A writing desk. A coffee nook. A conversation area without a TV.

The best homes don’t just look good. They support how you want to live.
