Can home staging Help you sell a house?

Too many personal items around the house can be distracting, but completely bare rooms can also come off as cold and impersonal. Home staging can be the solution. Staging a home means preparing a property for sale by temporarily furnishing and decorating—and sometimes, renovating—various rooms to make it more attractive.

Why is staging a good idea?

Proper staging won't just help a buyer to visualize their life in the home: It can also help a home appear newer and in better condition. "Staged homes are also thought of as being more well maintained and more cared for, because we want it to be pristine," Stratton says. "We want it to stand out and look its absolute best."

How do you stage a home for sale?

Point loveseats and couches toward each other, which will actually increase the amount of space in rooms. Don’t be afraid to mix things completely up. In real life, you’d probably point the couch toward the television. But staging your home for sale isn’t about living in it. It’s about selling it. 3. Stay neutral for broad appeal

Is home staging an art or a science?
