Landlords frequently paint everything white because it gives the impression that the room is larger and more neutral. It appeals to the widest spectrum of possible renters. I have seen paint everywhere in almost every rental home I've ever lived in. Out of curiosity, I asked my current landlord why do landlords paint over everything white, and he shared several reasons. I have mentioned those below.

Why Do Landlords Paint Everything White?

Simplicity isn't the only reason to paint everything white. Both landlords and tenants benefit from this smart and calculated decision. Here is how:

  1. Not every renter is a fan of color. A white, neutral region serves as a blank canvas. Tenants find it easier to see the house as their own when it is white. They are free to decorate without interfering with the wall shades.

  2. White paint reflects light more effectively than any other color. It makes even small or dark areas appear clean and big.

  3. This paint is easily available and easy to maintain. If a tenant leaves scuff marks or stains, you can easily touch up certain areas rather than repainting the entire room.

From what I understand, landlords paint everything white since it's useful, timeless, and cost-effective.
