If you are selling your home , you want to make it as appealing as possible to potential buyers. While it is important to de-clutter your home to make it more appealing, having an empty house can be a potential problem as well. In past articles, we have discussed the importance of staging your home for sale. This is an example of how much difference staging can be.
We recently completed a new construction project in Manhattan Beach. Because this was new construction, we hired a Home Staging company to furnish the home as well as providing accents such as framed artwork, decorative appointments and kitchen dishes, napkins and utensils.
Here are some before and after images to show what a difference home staging makes.
Why Is Home Staging So Important
Empty homes are boring. Ok maybe boring is a strong word but if the home has furnishing and is properly staged, it will provide a much more appealing visual effect.
It helps potential buyers visualize the home as theirs. When potential buyers are able to see the home furnished, they can begin to get an idea of how their furnishing would look in the home. It can also help them gain ideas as to how they want to make the home their own.
If you plan to do your own home staging, remember less is more. Clear excessive items on flat surfaces and make sure windows, carpets, floors and surfaces are clean. People need to be able to visualize how their possessions would look in the home. If the house is crammed full of all your stuff, this becomes a lot more difficult.
