STAGING BASICS

The key to staging is simplicity and getting prospective buyers to a place where the can picture themselves in the home.  You can begin by focusing on these staging basics

  • DECLUTTER – Remove you from the house (mean pictures and personnel items).  Replace personal photos with scenery or postcards.  A good general rule is to have no more than 3 item per surface.
  • Neutralize – Neutralize the rooms with light-colored paint.  Like creams, tans and white.  Keep bright colors to a minimum.
  • Keep It Clean – Nothing sells better than a clean and well maintained home.  Always keep the home feeling and smelling clean for showings.
