Staging to Sell

Prior to listing your house for sale, consider a proven way to sell your house: expert home staging. Some positive aspects of home staging include fewer days on the market and better offers. If you want to sell your house quickly, choose a well-planned home staging strategy.

Think of staging your home as creating a "style" for your home like a manager would do for a well-known entertainer. Just like creating an image draws more popularity for a public figure, staging makes your home more attractive on the market.

Making ready your house to sell doesn't have to be a problem. It can actually be a great time to let your creative juices flow. Together, we'll work to get an exceptional offer for your home's sale. Use these home staging pointers to get you started:

Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your first chance to create a great first impression on buyers from a street perspective. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers form their initial perception of your home and how you perform house's regular maintenance.Understanding this assists us in determining what measures we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't up to par with retouched paint and bright greenery we'll need to address those as well. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Could a buyer picture themselves lounging in your living space, relaxing in your reading nook or getting work done in your home office? I want your house to welcome buyers and give them a sense of easy living. I'll help you accomplish this by recommending changes that highlight the features of your home. I'll advise you eliminate items that give the look of clutter. Tabletops should be free and clear. Kitschy sculptures, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get stored away too. You need to remove the personal details from the home so buyers can picture it as their new house.

I know instantly what a room's best features are and how to show them off. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, rugs needing to get changed, fixtures that could use brightening, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively influence the sale.

Buyers' agents know that their clients expect a house that invites them inside. Anything that could be "loud" should be put away so that your house will impress buyers while on the market.

Setting the Stage

You'll know when to host an Open House, because everything comes together to set the stage for what buyers can look forward to after they close on your house. Brightening up your interior is critical, so we'll do things like open curtains and create light where needed to show off your home. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music to listen to while guests take a walk-through of your home and assure a nice fragrance circulates room-to-room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking bedspreads, and pillows on your love seat and bedding. Buyers should feel like your current house is their future home.
