Home Staging Advice

As a professional property staging consultant, I am constantly asked for home staging advice. I love to help anyone who is going through the perilous and stressful process of selling their home. Teaching people about the many benefits of home staging is the easy part. It is obvious that a well staged property will sell far faster and for more money than a “lived in” looking house. However, many people simply do not realize how easy home staging can be and how little money they will have to invest in order to make some really huge changes in the appeal of their home!

Some home owners are literally completely confused by all the activities which need to be accomplished in order to sell their home for a good price. They feel overwhelmed and sometimes do not take the time to even consider staging the property. They simply feel it is an optional service which they can probably do without. Well, 8 months later when they have still not sold their house and they have already reduced their asking price 2 times, they begin to see the error of their ways…

Other people want to stage, but simply feel they can not afford it. This is completely understandable, as some staging companies DO charge quite a bit of that hard earned CA$H to do a good job. While I personally feel that even large amounts of money spent on staging are generally excellent investments (since the cost is tax deductible and more than likely to increase the asking price considerably), many sellers simply DO NOT have the money to lay out. This is completely understandable.

Finally, some home owners simply take to the idea of staging like a fish to water, understanding that they REQUIRE excellent décor and curb appeal with universal appeal, if they are to sell their home on their terms. Don't know where to start??? That's ok. Learning how to stage your home can be fast and easy with a bit of effort and sweat equity!

Practical Home Staging Advice

Ok, so maybe you have already decided that staging is right for you and maybe you are still trying to figure it all out. That’s fine… Please, take your time. That is the right way to do it! You are actually following my first piece of practical advice…

* Take your time to learn the facts about staging and how it will help you sell!

* Decide if you are going to do DIY staging, hire a consultant or hire a full service staging company. This choice is particularly important for families with young children or pets.

* Make a home staging checklist to help you plan the project.

* Plan your budget and start the process of enhancing the saleability of your home! Remember to work hard to create an emotional connection between prospective buyers and your home.

* Take lots of home staging photos to help market the home on MLS and in print ads! Home staging pictures are truly worth 1000 words!

Final Home Staging Advice

It is crucial to remember that home staging should be completed prior to actually listing your home for sale. This way, all is in order to take the photos which will represent your home on the web, on MLS and in print ads. Additionally, your house will sparkle and be ripe and ready to impress real estate agents and buyers alike. This is the best way to a fast sale! However, it is never too late to stage a home. If you are not having much success trying to sell for a fair price, consider implementing more aggressive staging at any point during the sales process. These efforts can only help you to achieve your goal of finding the right buyer for your house and moving on with your life (with a nice profit from the sale in hand!)
