Staging your home:
Put simply, staging your property means getting it ready for sale; or, if you are not moving, it then means - re-designing the space to enable you to enjoy more creativity in your home. This involves more than de-cluttering and de-personalizing. It involves among other things furniture placement; proper flow; adding or removing accessories; highlight focal points and introducing neutral colours and tones. The idea behind staging is to make your home appealing to a wide range of buyers and entice them to make an offer.
Why do you need to stage your home?
Because your competition is! And statistics prove that by staging your home, it will sell faster and more likely for more money.
When should you stage your home?
BEFORE you put your home on the market; here is the rationale behind that:
• More and more home buyers view properties on the internet before they go to visit homes, so they preselect – you want your home on the pre-selected list.
• You’ll get a head start on your packing, since you’ll be going through each room and clearing it out.
How Do I Get Started?
Take an unbiased look at your home; if you were on the marker would you purchase your home in its present condition? Buyers want to feel comfortable when they enter your home they want to see themselves living in the space, they don’t want to be distracted by your “stuff” Pack your personal treasures to lighten up your rooms and to give buyers a chance to imagine their possessions in the space.
Get advice:
Have a friend or neighbour give you an honest assessment, and be prepared to listen; visit other homes for sale and see the condition they are in – how does your home compare; for professional assistance hire a professional stager who will take on the responsibility and make your home totally buyer friendly.
