When it comes to your home, your personal style and taste is the best way to make the space yours and feel comfortable and inviting. But what happens when it’s time to sell, and move on? Not everyone is going to have the same taste as you. It’s important to find the perfect balance between blank slate, and a homey welcoming feel. Professional Home Stagers can do just that and help relieve a lot of stress involved in preparing your home to sell.
Now, more than ever first impressions are extremely important. Potential buyers are starting their searches online, browsing photos of the inside and outside of your home. If the photographs aren’t enticing enough, there’s a good chance that your home won’t make an impression and the buyers will pass on seeing it in person. Staging can enhance each room in your home, creating an enticing space that invites buyers to want more.
Maximizing the Space
Staging a “lived in” home focuses on decluttering, depersonalizing and reorganizing. The focus gives each room a clear purpose, taking any guesswork out of things for buyers. It helps creates a flow that is beneficial to most potential buyers. This will eliminate any chance of buyers getting hung up on awkward layouts, floor plans or decor they may not like. Multi-purpose rooms are a great example of confusion for many people. A professional stager has experience and knowledge in the real estate market, and knows what the majority of buyers are looking for. They create a clear and concise vision.

Virtual Reality
Selling your home to move onto the next chapter is the most common reason to enter the Real Estate market, however there are a lot of empty houses that await new ownership as well. As we know, pictures are worth a thousand words and sometimes worth thousands of dollars when it comes to Real Estate. An empty home can appear cold, and uninviting. Everyone has a different level of imagination, and many find it difficult to envision a comfortable ‘homey‘ space when looking at four walls and a floor. This is when virtual staging can create a huge impact! Using virtual tools, and outsourcing to virtual staging companies can make or break the potential sale of a home. Showcasing the possibilities of a space in photographs will entice potential buyers to view the home in person. It can be just as important as staging a well loved and lived in space.
