Staging to Sell

Prior to listing your home for sale, consider the best way to sell your house: professional home staging. Home staging benefits include fewer days on the market and higher bids. And you should certainly decide on professional home staging if you need a quick home sale.

Look at staging your house as creating a "style" for your home the same way a manager would do for a popular celebrity. Just like creating an image garners more positive publicity to a public figure, staging makes your home more attractive on the market.

Preparing your house to sell doesn't have to be a problem. Instead it can be an eye-opening and creative task. Together, we'll work to get an exceptional offer for your home's sale. Start with this home staging advice and you'll see that your house sits fewer days on the market :

Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your only chance to create a positive impact on buyers before they enter your house. The positive and negative 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 attract buyers from the street and into your house. If your home's exterior isn't up to par with refreshed paint and blooming garden plants we'll need to tackle those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your home seem to say, "Hello From Your New Welcome Home" to a buyer? Touring your house with a buyer's eye, I'll recommend adjustments that improve sales appeal. I'll advise you reduce the effect of anything that gives the appearance of clutter. Table and counter tops should be cleared off. Brick-a-brack, sentimental items, family photos, and play time artwork should get stored away too. I can help you de-clutter your house. Disheveled or busy spaces make your home look less spacious and buyers have a harder time picturing themselves living there.

Every room gets a once-over. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that need brightening, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.

Buyers like a house that seems comfortable. Anything that could be "offensive" should be put away in order for your home to impress buyers during any visit.

Setting the Stage

In the short time that your house will be on the market, we want to capture buyers' attention. Dark living areas can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like part the curtains and create light where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music playing softly and ensure a nice scent circulates throughout your home. We'll incorporate cozy-looking bedspreads, and throw pillows on your sofa and bed. Buyers should feel like your home has the potential to be.
