Spend Fewer Days on the Market in San Jose, California With Home Staging

Prior to listing your house for sale, consider the best way to sell your house: careful home staging. Some advantages to home staging include less time on the market and better offers. If your goal is to sell your home quickly, consider a thoroughly thought out approach to home staging.

Look at staging your home as creating an "image" for your house like a manager would do for a famous politician. Just like creating an image draws more popularity for a public figure, staging makes your real estate more inviting on the market.

Preparing your home for an Open House doesn't have to be an annoying experience. It can actually be a blast. Together, we'll strive for a top dollar offer for your property. Below are a few home staging pointers to get you going:

Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your best chance to make a strong first impression on buyers before they walk into your home. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers form their first thoughts about your home and how you upkeep home's regular maintenance.Knowing this helps us to decide what plan of action we can use to invite buyers from the street and into your home. If your house isn't pretty on the outside with refreshed paint and bright greenery it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Can buyers picture themselves watching a movie in your living area, reading a good book in your reading nook or studying in your home office? I want your house to welcome buyers and give them a sense of ease. I'll help you do this by recommending changes that enhance the features of your property. I'll help you get rid of anything that gives the illusion of clutter. Tabletops should be clutter-free. Knickknacks, souvenirs, family photos, and refrigerator works of art should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Unsightly or busy spaces make your home feel less spacious and buyers have a more difficult time imagining themselves calling your property "home".

I know exactly what a room's best features are and how to show them off. Areas that directly affect your dollars include easy-to-fix items like furniture pieces that should get removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet that needs steaming, fixtures that need replacing, and windows that need cleaning.

Buyers like a property that invites them inside. Anything that could be "offensive" should be put away so that your home will have likability at every showing.

Setting the Stage

I'll tell you when to host an Open House, because everything comes together to create a picture of what buyers can expect after they close on your house. Brightening up each room is of major importance, so we'll do things like part the curtains and reduce shadows where needed to show off your property. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music playing lightly and assure a pleasing fragrance flows room-to-room. We'll make use of cozy-looking throws, and place pillows on your sofa and bedding. Buyers should feel like your home is their future home.
