Stage Your House: Empty Homes are Harder Sells

August 7, 2016 6:58 pm

If you’re in the market to buy or sell a home, you are probably an expert at scrolling through homes online. What causes you to keep your finger firmly pressed on the down arrow? For most people it’s empty houses. With vacant homes, buyers miss out on the style of the home, the flavor, the character. They only see blank space devoid of any sentiment. In some cases this neutral look is preferred. But the absence of furniture or design leaves too much to the imagination, causing buyers to seek a more complete vision and excitement in another property.

See why vacant homes are hard to sell in this guide from the expert team at Levine Homes Real Estate. We are professionals in proper home staging, and can help you take your home from listed to “sold” with just a few tricks and tips.

Why Vacant Homes Don’t Sell

At Levine Homes, we’ve seen our fair share of empty spaces. We can help you transform your space into a welcoming, beautiful buyer’s paradise. We know first-hand all the reasons vacant homes are hard to sell, including:

Lacks Vision Empty homes don’t provide a vision for the buyer on how the space should be utilized. Use furnishings to provide a comfortable flow.

Void of Feeling A room devoid of furnishings leaves an empty feeling in a buyer. Fill it with furniture and décor that complement the space.

Easier to Find Imperfections You don’t want prospective buyers to see small faults in your home. Staging helps hide imperfections.
