Before you put your house on the market, consider the best way to sell your house: professional home staging. Home staging benefits include less time on the market and higher selling prices. And you should definitely try professional home staging if you need a fast home sale.
Staging your house in Covina is all about selling a lifestyle. You want buyers to picture themselves living and lounging in your home. You want them to see your current home as their next house.
Staging your property to sell doesn't have to be an annoying experience. It can actually be a great time to let your creative juices flow. Together, we'll work to get a premium offer for your property. Below are a few home staging tricks to get you started:
Start with the outside of your house, better known as your curb appeal. Look at the exterior of your home from the view of a passerby. What jumps out at you? What wonderful characteristics seem to fade into the background?Acknowledging this helps us to decide what actions we can take to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with retouched paint and blooming garden plants it's time to get those things done. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and raise your house's final selling price.
Could a buyer see themselves hanging out in your living space, relaxing in your master bedroom or inviting family and friends over for a dinner in your eat-in kitchen? I want your Open House to welcome buyers and give them a sense of ease. I'll help you achieve this by recommending small improvements that highlight your house's features.
I'll suggest that you reduce the effect of anything that gives the illusion of clutter. Tabletops should be clutter-free. Brick-a-brack, sentimental items, family photos, and play time works of art should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Ugly or dirty areas make your home feel unkempt and buyers have a more difficult time imagining themselves calling your property "home".
Every room gets a once-over. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need new paint, rugs needing to get changed, fixtures that could use shining, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively impact the sale.
Buyers' agents know that their clients want a house that charms them. Items that could be uninviting should be put away so that your home will impress buyers at every showing.
Setting the Stage
I'll tell you when to show your house, because all of the improvements mesh together to set the stage for what buyers will expect when they consider buying your house.
Brightening up each room is critical, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and reduce shadows where needed to welcome the buyer. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music to listen to while guests enjoy your home and assure a delightful scent circulates room-to-room. We'll add cozy-looking throws, and pillows on your sofa and bed. We want buyers to feel like your current house has the potential to be.
