People seek the services of a home stager when they want to sell their house quickly and get top dollar for their investment. When you decide to put your home on the market, less is more. The way you live and the way you sell are totally different. This means you will have to pack away some personal items to make your home more desirable to a larger spectrum of buyers.

If you keep your goals in mind during this transition and realize this is a temporary set up, the effort will be worth the results. The first step would be a visit to your home to create a needs assessment of the exterior and interior of the home. We begin with the appearance of the house from the street. This may require sprucing up landscaping, a fresh coat of paint, power washing, fixing any visible flaws and addressing maintenance and repair issues to create a memorable first impression.

Once inside, the same detail should be given to every area of each room. A thorough evaluation will be done to plan to create the atmosphere that will give prospective buyers the feeling could move right in. This requires clearing the clutter, cleaning out closets and storage areas, clearing off countertops, bookcases, tables and any other visible areas a prospective buyer would look. Sometimes storing items off the premises or in the garage is necessary to create the feeling of a larger space. We will also address updating, repair and maintenance issues.

Houses that are Home Staged typically sell quicker and can often sell at a higher price.
