Staging house for sale
Home staging is the very best proven real estate strategy used by successful home sellers and realtors across North America – it is the art of preparing a home for the real estate market. Home staging is about creating an environment where the home buyer sees themselves in the home. It is the key that unlocks buyer’s emotions and helps them connect to your house. Home staging is much more than just helping sellers decorate their homes. It is proven way to get top dollar for your home as you prepare it for sale regardless of the home’s price, location, or condition. It’s merchandising your product to its’ fullest potential.
Home staging is an art beyond decorating, fluffing, interior design or redesign. Decorating is a way of personalizing your home for your needs; home staging is exactly the opposite. It is detailing, decluttering, depersonalizing and preparing a seller’s home to give it a showroom appeal. It is accomplished by not having to purchase new furnishings, but rather, rearranging, removing and refreshing the existing furniture. Home staging is a tool to transform both the interior and the exterior of a house to present it as fresh, clean, uncluttered, well-cared for and welcoming - home staging is “curb appeal” for the whole home.
Home staging is the most effective marketing tool used in today’s changing market. The concept dramatically reduces the days homes are on the market and is bringing in significantly higher sales prices and profits to sellers.
Make no mistake, home staging is an investment not an expense. It is a proven technique that has lead to selling thousands of homes for top dollar. Home staging is about letting a home’s best features shine through, by setting the stage for the buyers to walk in the front door and immediately envision themselves living in the space. It is not hiding serious problems that need to be addressed in any way.
Home staging is the smartest investment a homeowner can make to maximize the value of their home at the time of sale. Home staging is quick, easy and affordable. In a slow real estate market, home staging is a must - it is good news for the seller; good news for the buyer; and good news for the Realtor.

Staging tips
We (3 adults & 4 small children) will be living in our 1800 sq ft home while we try to sell it. I plan to remove a ton of stuff for “staging” to make the home show better and look larger. If the attached garage is used as storage for all the boxes and extra furniture will buyers be scared away or turned off? Do we need to rent a storage unit? The laundry area is also in the garage so they will definitely see it in a walk through with their agent.
Put all the stuff that you intend to use after selling your house in a storage unit. Discard those things you don’t need anymore, by either donating them or bringing them in the dumpsite. Buyers always check out the garage and you don’t want to show them a cluttered garage.

Staging house for sale
Selling property in a sluggish market can be a disappointing and gut wrenching process but it is often necessary for one reason or another. Unlike stocks and bonds, real estate is not the most liquid of assets to turn into cash when the going gets rough and money is needed immediately.
There is only one way in which real estate can truly be sold in a sluggish market such as the one that is rocking the world at the moment - offering an exceptional value to consumers.
Play up the attributes of your property – great location; big backyard; a pool; breath taking views from your living room; finished basement, etc. but don’t forget that staging sells homes.
There is something cold about an empty house. It could be painted impeccably and meet every possible standard a family has and yet feel cold and uninviting. You can easily overcome this by contacting a local furniture rental store and picking out furniture that will match at least the primary rooms of the home in order to make the home appear lived in and homelike.
The primary rooms that you will want to appear ‘lived in’ are the living room, dining room, master bedroom, and all bathrooms. These are the rooms that essentially sell homes and it is important to make them appear neat, orderly, and well cared for. If you have the funds for every room in the home then by all means do so. It is a huge selling point, particularly for those who are trying to sell homes quickly. I would strongly encourage you to keep this furniture as long as the home is being shown regularly.
You will want to do so much more than simply putting furniture in the property you are trying to sell. You want to create an atmosphere or warmth and comfort. This means you want to have prints on the walls, mirrors, plants, and pillows. Staging a home can absolutely lead to a higher offer and a quicker sell, even in today’s sluggish market.
In a buyer’s market there will be low offers, insultingly low offers the first time around. Do not take this personally. They are not insulting you or your property; they are only attempting to gain the most with spending the least money possible.
Do not attach an emotional value to the price of the property. This is simply bad business. No matter how much sweat, tears, and blood have gone into your house you must realize that this is just a business transaction for you and for the person placing the bid. You cannot afford to run off potential bidders by becoming insulting or feeling insulted by their bids. Make a counter offer and see what happens rather than letting emotions rule the day.
