Staging to Sell

Before you put your residence on the market, consider the best way to sell your house: expert home staging. Some positive aspects of home staging include fewer days on the market and higher selling prices. If you want to sell your house quickly, think about a well-planned home staging strategy.

Home staging is part of preparing your home for an Open House. Staging concentrates energy on your home's presentation to buyers and buyers' agents while showing off the characteristics of your home with strategically placed furniture and photos so that your home looks as if it's more open and buyers can envision living in your home.

Making ready your home for an Open House doesn't have to be a nerve-racking experience. At times, it's a thrilling and creative task. Together, we'll work to get an exceptional bid for your home's sale. Use these home staging tricks to get you started:

Curb Appeal Checklist

First, look at the exterior of your house, also called your curb appeal. Look at the outside of your house from the view of a passerby. What do you notice first? What great features seem waiting to be noticed?Acknowledging this assists us in deciding what steps we can take to invite buyers from the street and into your house. If your home isn't at its best on the outside with retouched paint and bright garden plants it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and boost your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your house seem to say, "Hello From Your New Welcome Home" to a buyer? Looking through your house with a critical eye, I'll recommend fixes that improve market appeal. I'll suggest that you take away anything that gives the appearance of clutter. Surface areas like tables, desks and counters should be cleared off. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Ugly or dirty places make your home feel less spacious and buyers have a more difficult time picturing themselves living there.

I know instantly where a room's best features are and how to highlight them. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that could use shining, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.

Buyers expect a home that charms them. Personal items that could be uninviting should be put away so that your home will have general appeal to buyers.

Setting the Stage

In the short time that your house will be on the market, we're doing well if we're engaging the buyer's senses. Dark rooms can be a real mood killer, so we'll do things like open curtains and create light where needed to welcome the buyer. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music playing softly and ensure a pleasing scent circulates from every room. We'll include cozy-looking blankets, and throw pillows on your chairs and bedding. Buyers should feel like your current home is their future home.
