Staging Tips





As I always state, real estate is a price war and beauty contest, and I wanted to discuss some simple things that sellers can do to maximize the value of their home and make it as appealing as possible to their potential buyers. Buyers judge a home in 15 seconds, so make every second count. Since over 90% of buyers start their search online, sometimes months in advance, prepping a home for pictures is vital.  This is the first impression that they get, and making your home as beautiful as possible is simply essential.
What are some other interior updates?
When staging your home, you want to highlight the best features of your home and decor, so focus on decluttering, deep-cleaning, and brightening. Some simple and cost-effective measures can be extremely valuable.
How about the exterior?
According to HouseLogic's 2013 Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report, curb appeal projects are rated among the most valuable home improvement projects. Check your roof for winter wear-and-tear, clean up the yard, wash the windows, clean your mailbox, etc. Whether you work with a stager or do it yourself, show off what made you fall in love with your home, and you'll hopefully help a buyer find that same attachment.
