7 Home-Staging Ideas to Help You Sell Fast
Experts share 7 home staging ideas to showcase your home’s strengths, tone its weaknesses down, and appeal to most potential buyers.
Get rid of clutter
Too much furniture can give your space a cluttered look. Professional home staging experts may remove your furniture, especially the bulky pieces, to make the space look bigger. You want prospective buyers to be able to easily move around, access the best features and catch the view from the windows. Don’t keep too many things on the coffee table nor pile too many cushions in the living room.
Placement matters
To create space, don’t just push the furniture against the walls. Place the couch and chairs into a conversational setting. Let the spaces appear user-friendly while opening up the spaces.
Create a workspace
After the pandemic, an increasing number of people are working from home. You don’t need to dedicate an entire room to create office space. Try creating a workspace in a spare bedroom or next to a window in a larger room.
Depersonalize
You want prospective buyers to be able to visualize themselves in your home. Remove personal items like family photos, and framed diplomas and replace them with neutral wall art.
Highlight Storage
Storage is usually a priority for buyers. Highlight the storage by organizing their contents in matching bins and baskets. Add potpourri in the cabinets so when anyone looks inside, they find fresh-smelling sheets and towels.
Improve lighting
Have you seen how beautifully staged homes look so welcoming? The reason is great lighting. Every 50 feet need at least 100 watts. Increase the types of light fixtures in a room. Select ambient lighting as general or overhead room lighting, task lighting to provide focused lighting in an area and accent lighting over tables and on walls.
Use color
While neutrals are safe for home staging, don’t shy away from bold color in to draw attention to a feature or to make them pop, for example, colored cushions on a neutral couch or a floral chair in a room of solid furnishings.
