Staging to Sell

Prior to listing your real estate for sale, consider the best way to sell your house: well-planned home staging. Home staging benefits include less time on the market and higher selling prices. And you should certainly decide on professional home staging if you need a quick home sale.

Staging your house in Dallas is all about selling a lifestyle. You want buyers to imagine themselves living and lounging in your house. You want them to see your present house as their next house.

Prepping your property to sell shouldn't be thought of as a nerve-racking experience. It can actually be a great time to let your creative juices flow. Together, we'll work to get a high offer for your property. Below are a few home staging pointers to get you started:

Curb Appeal Checklist

First, look at the exterior of your house, also called your curb appeal. Inspect the exterior of your house from the view of a passerby. What do you notice first? What great characteristics seem hidden?Knowing this helps us to decide what measures we can take to attract buyers from the street and into your home. If your house isn't attractive on the outside with touched up paint and colorful garden plants we'll need to tackle those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and elevate your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your home seem to say, "Hello From Your New Welcome Home" to a buyer? Walking-through your property with a critical eye, I'll suggest changes that enhance sales appeal. I'll suggest that you eliminate things that give the appearance of clutter. Counter tops should be cleared off. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and refrigerator drawings should get moved out of sight. You need to give mass appeal to the home so buyers can picture it as their new house.

I know instantly where a room's best features are and how to highlight them. I'll note the pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, carpet needing to get changed, fixtures that need polishing, and any other improvement that can easily be made to positively affect the sale.

Buyers' agents know that their clients like a home that invites them inside. Anything that could be unsightly should be removed in order for your property to have general appeal at every showing.

Setting the Stage

At every showing, we want to capture buyers' attention. Dark living areas can really dampen a buyer's spirits, so we'll do things like part the curtains and create light where needed to show off your home. Together we'll enhance the ambiance with enjoyable music to listen to while guests look at your home and make sure a nice scent circulates from every area. We'll add cozy-looking bedspreads, and pillows on your love seat and bed. Buyers should feel like your current house is their future home.
