When selling your home, staging can make all the difference in attracting potential buyers and getting the best offer possible. Professional staging is a key part of our selling process. Here are some tips for staging your house to sell:

 

1. Declutter: Remove any unnecessary items from your home, including personal belongings and furniture that may be too large or bulky for the space.

2. Depersonalize: Potential buyers want to be able to envision themselves living in the home, so it's important to remove any personal touches such as family photos and unique decor.

3. Clean: A clean home is a must when showing it to potential buyers. Make sure to thoroughly clean each room, including baseboards, floors, windows, and that pesky bathroom fan.

4. Lighten up: Brighten your home by opening up curtains and blinds to let in natural light, and add extra lighting to any dark spaces. We recommend using Daylight lightbulbs, and to ensure that all lightbulbs in any room are giving off the same colour light.

5. Make repairs: Fix any minor repairs such as leaky faucets or holes in walls. Buyers want a home that is move-in ready and they may be turned off by any noticeable damages.

6. Neutralize: If you have any bold paint colors, consider repainting in neutral colors. This can help potential buyers better visualize themselves living in the space.

7. Rearrange furniture: Consider rearranging furniture to make rooms appear more spacious and functional.

8. Add finishing touches: Finally, add some finishing touches such as fresh flowers or a bowl of fruit to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

 

By following these tips for staging your house to sell, you can increase the chances of attracting potential buyers and receiving the best offer possible.
