Staging to Sell
Professional home staging is an established technique used to sell a home here in El Dorado Hills. Home staging benefits include fewer days on the market and higher selling prices. If your goal is to sell your house quickly, go for a thoroughly thought out home staging strategy.
Home staging is part of preparing your home for sale. Staging focuses on your home's presentation to buyers and buyers' agents while showing off the features of your home with strategically placed furniture and decorations so that your home feels more open and buyers can envision their lives in your home.
Staging your house for an Open House shouldn't be thought of as another hurdle in getting your house sold. It can actually be a great time to let your creative juices flow. Together, we'll work to get an exceptional offer for your property. Below are a few home staging tricks to get you going:
Curb Appeal
Curb appeal is your first chance to make a positive impact on buyers before they step foot into your home. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers create their initial perception of your home and how you upkeep home's regular maintenance. Understanding this helps us to choose what measures we can take to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't pretty on the outside with refreshed paint and blooming greenery we'll need to address those as well. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.
"Welcome to your new home!"
Could a buyer envision themselves hanging out in your living area, unwinding in your reading nook or hosting a dinner in your eat-in kitchen? I want your house to welcome buyers and give them a sense of comfort. I'll help you accomplish this by recommending changes that highlight the features of your property. I'll tell you eliminate pieces that give the appearance of clutter. Counter tops should be neatly arranged. Knickknacks, souvenirs, family photos, and refrigerator artwork should get moved out of sight. You need to "generalize" the house so buyers can imagine it as their new house.
I know exactly what a room's best features are and how to highlight them. Improvements that directly impact your bottom line include easy-to-fix items like furniture pieces that should be removed, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs changing, fixtures that need shining, and windows that need washing
With me by your side, you'll know that your house is appealing and that it's comfortable, staying away from "offensive" or "can't-work-with" hues on the walls and furniture. And if the house is empty, you can consider renting furniture. The goal is for your house to look homey as opposed to cold and deserted.
Setting the Stage
I'll tell you when to show your house, because all of the improvements mesh together to create a picture of what buyers can expect when they consider buying your house. Dark rooms can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like open curtains and add lighting where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests enjoy your home and assure a pleasing aroma circulates throughout your home. We'll make use of cozy-looking bedspreads, and place pillows on your love seat and bedding.
