Property Staging

Importance of Property Staging in Real Estate

When searching for the ideal home, staging is an important step to take place by the real estate agent. Hiring a staging expert is important to help the home buyer anticipate how he or she could set up the home to suit their own particular needs. Staging provides a visual to the individual or family who is selecting a home to purchase.

Guidelines for Staging a Home

When choosing a Realtor®, it is important to choose one that is also an expert in staging the apartment or house. Good staging can be accomplished with the following guidelines:

• Maid services – The apartment or house should be completely clean. Having a “lived-in”
  look is not what sells. Staging experts should have a cleaning service arrive at the location to make it sparkle, from floor to ceiling. Keep in mind that buyers will look inside cabinets and all around.
• Showcase the house – The location should be set to its maximum potential. Small changes can often make a large difference on the appearance of the home.
• Pay attention to the home’s curb appeal – The outside of the home also makes an important difference on the overall appeal of the home. Ensure that the garden, lighting fixtures, and walkways will make a great first impression to the potential buyer or leaser.
