   What is Home Staging?

"Home staging is the act of preparing a private residence prior to going up for sale in the real estate marketplace. The goal of staging is to sell a home quickly, and for the most money possible by making a home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers. Staging focuses on improving a property to make it appeal to the largest number of buyers by transforming it into a welcoming, appealing, and attractive product for sale." Source: Wikipedia

Here are Six Key Tips for Preparing for Professional Staging & Selling Your Home

1. Kitchen - Declutter cabinets and counter tops. Make sure all appliances are clean and sparkling.
2. Bath - Adding candles will add romance to the bath. Fresh guest towels should be placed on the towel holder. This makes any bathroom more appealing.
3. Living Room - Less is more when trying to show that a room is large and roomy. Colors coordinated in the room will also make a smooth transition and are pleasing to the eye.
4. Bedroom - Always make your bed and have a few throw pillows. Bed trays will show a relaxing environment. Take down all personal pictures and replace with pictures of landscape, add a mirror or sconce.
5. Home Office - Declutter and make sure all personal and business information is kept under cover. Sometimes adding a couch or soft stuffed chair will make this room also relaxing.
6. Dining Room - Fresh flowers make a nice presence in this room…..also unscented candles.
