Design it
Staging transforms homes and makes them look brand new. It highlights the home’s best features and demonstrates the home’s potential. It has a big impact on how buyers see your home. The goals of staging are to make the home appear move-in ready and help buyers visualize themselves living in it. Proper staging can make the home appear larger. It’s a common misconception that clearing out a room can make it seem bigger, but it actually makes the room appear smaller. On the other end of the spectrum, having too many pieces or oversized furniture can make the rooms feel cramped. Staging can turn a room that appears “too small” to “cozy” in a buyer’s mind. When the market is hot and prices are higher, buyers are less likely to have funds for renovations or repairs. Staging puts less weight on minor renovations or repairs that need to be made. Stagers know the most cost-effective updates or repairs needed to show that your home is well worth the selling price.
