Prior to listing your home for sale, consider a surefire way to sell your house: well-planned home staging. Some positive aspects of home staging include less time on the market and higher selling prices. And you should definitely think about professional home staging if you need a fast home sale.
Think of staging your home as creating an "image" for your house similar to what a PR firm would do for a popular entertainer. Just like creating an image garners the spotlight to a public figure, staging makes your home more attractive on the market.
Preparing your house for an Open House shouldn't be thought of as a nerve-racking experience. It can turn into an eye-opening and creative task. Together, we'll strive for an exceptional offer for your home. Use these home staging pointers to get you started:
Start with the exterior of your house, also called your curb appeal. Examine the exterior of your home from a street perspective. What do you notice first? What dollar-earning characteristics seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this helps us to choose what plan of action we can use to draw buyers from the street and into your house. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with touched up paint and colorful garden plants we'll need to tackle those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.
Could a buyer see themselves watching a movie in your living space, relaxing in your spa tub or studying in your home office? I want your home to welcome buyers and offer them a sense of comfort. I'll help you do this by recommending small improvements that enhance the features of your property.
I'll suggest that you get rid of anything that gives the illusion of clutter. Surface areas like tables, desks and counters should be neatly arranged. Arts and crafts, souvenirs, family photos, and kids' works of art should get moved out of sight. I can help you de-clutter your house. Unsightly or dirty places make your home seem smaller and buyers have a harder time imagining themselves calling your property "home".
Every room gets a once-over. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be put in storage, rooms that need new paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that need shining, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively influence the sale.
Potential buyers like a house that brings them inside. Personal items that could be "offensive" should be put away so that your house will achieve mass appeal while on the market.
Setting the Stage
During your Open House, we're doing well if we're engaging the buyer's senses.
Brightening up your interior is of major importance, so we'll do things like open curtains and reduce shadows where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music playing softly and make sure a nice fragrance flows room-to-room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking bedspreads, and place pillows on your couch and bedding. We want buyers to feel like your house is their future home.
