Before you list your house for sale, consider a surefire way to sell your house: well-planned home staging. Some positive aspects of home staging include fewer days on the market and more offers. If you want to sell your house quickly, choose a thoroughly thought out home staging strategy.
Think of staging your home as creating a "style" for your home like a PR firm would do for a well-known entertainer. Just like creating a style garners more popularity for a public figure, staging makes your house more attractive on the market.
Staging your home for an Open House shouldn't be thought of as a nerve-racking experience. It can actually be enjoyable. Together, we'll strive for a premium bid for your home's sale. Begin with this home staging advice and you'll notice that your home sits fewer days on the market :
Start with the exterior of your house, or your curb appeal. Take a fresh look at the outside of your home from the view of a passerby. What do you notice first? What great features seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this helps us to choose what steps we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your house. If your home isn't attractive on the outside with touched up 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.
Can buyers picture themselves watching a movie in your living room, unwinding in your master bedroom or hosting a dinner in your eat-in kitchen? I want your house to pleasantly accept buyers and offer them a sense of easy living. I'll help you do this by recommending changes that enhance the features of your property.
I'll advise you reduce the effect of items that give the look of clutter. Tabletops should be neatly arranged. Kitschy sculptures, souvenirs, family photos, and play time works of art should get stored away too. You need to remove the personal details from the house so buyers can see it as their new house.
Every area gets a once-over. Enhancements that directly affect your sale price include fixable like pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs to be replaced, fixtures that need polishing, and windows that need cleaning.
I'll ensure your home is neutral and that it's comfortable, staying away from "offensive" or "personalized" colors on the walls and furniture. And if the house is vacant, you can try borrowing furniture. The goal is for your house to look ready to live in as opposed to empty.
Setting the Stage
You'll know when to open your home up to buyers, because all of the changes come together to create a picture of what buyers can envision when they consider buying your house.
Dark rooms can be a real mood killer, so we'll do things like open curtains and change light bulbs where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests tour your home and make sure a delightful aroma flows from every room. We'll add cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your love seat and bed. We want buyers to feel like your home is their future home.
