Think of staging your house as creating a "style" for your home like a manager would do for a famous celebrity. Just like creating an image garners more popularity for a public figure, staging makes your real estate look better when it's on the market.
Making ready your house for an Open House shouldn't be thought of as an annoying experience. It can actually be a blast. Together, we'll work to get a premium offer for your home's sale. Below are a few home staging tips to get you started:
First, look at the outside of your home, better known as your curb appeal. Look at the outside of your home from a street view. What jumps out at you? What great characteristics seem hidden?Understanding this assists us in deciding what plan of action we can use to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't the best it can look on the outside with touched up paint and colorful greenery it's time to get those things done. Follow the Curb Appeal Checklist and add dollars to your home's final selling price.
Does your home seem to say, "Hello From Your New Welcome Home" to a buyer? Walking-through your home with a critical eye, I'll suggest fixes that enhance Open House appeal.
I'll suggest that you put in storage items that give the impression of clutter. Counter tops should be clutter-free. Brick-a-brack, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get moved out of sight. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Disheveled or messy places make your home look less spacious and buyers have a harder time seeing themselves calling your property "home".
Every area gets a once-over. Changes that directly affect your dollars include fixable like pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs to be steamed, fixtures that need shining, and windows that need cleaning.
I'll make sure your house has mass appeal and that it's friendly, avoiding "offensive" or "personalized" colors on the walls and furniture. And if the house is empty, you can try borrowing furnishings. You want your house to look lived in as opposed to cold and empty.
Setting the Stage
You'll know when to show your house, because everything comes together to create a picture of what buyers can expect when they consider buying your house.
Brightening up your interior is of major importance, so we'll do things like part the curtains and create light where needed to show off your property. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music playing lightly and make sure a pleasing aroma flows room-to-room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your love seat and bed. Buyers should feel like your house has the potential to be.
