Q: How important is staging a home to sell?
A: Staging can really make a big difference. In selling your home, your main goal should be to get it sold as quickly as possible and for the best price. Staging goes a long way in helping your home in both of those areas.
Q: What is staging exactly?
A: In the industry, staging generally means setting up a home with attractive furnishings and accessories so that is looks like a model. Often staged homes are either new construction or perhaps the family has moved and the home is empty. Staging should mean checking the home to make sure everything is in good shape and in working order.
Q: So when does the furniture staging come in?
A: Once the house is in good shape, we like to move around your furniture, art and accessories and “edit” them. That is a nice way of saying we try to de-clutter and make sure everything is arranged so that the home looks attractive and welcoming. If you are living in your home, clutter should be removed, even from the garage, closets and attic. You want to the home to appear open and spacious, not filled to the brim with stuff.
If the home is empty, some staging experts and realtors suggest that items be rented so that the home appears lived in and gracious. No matter what you decide to do, spending a little time making the home look its best is definitely in your best interest.
