Would it be a turn off to buyers if the garage is filled with the stuff removed from our home for “staging”?

Posted under Staging house for sale, 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.

    sorry, it is a big deal. using your garage for storage will make it look smaller. buyers won't be stoked with that at all. especially since the laundry is in the garage. i recommend renting a storage unit or seeing if someone you know would let you store your things at their place temporarily. your real estate agent could also have some ideas for you. make sure that as you are staging your home you sort through everything - don't save things you don't need and donate the items you no longer need to charity.

    good luck selling your home!
