The staging process starts long before the buyer reaches your front door. It begins at curbside. At times, a prospective buyer may drive by a listing without making an appointment to view inside. If the home’s approach isn’t attractive and tidy, the buyer could potentially be turned away from the property even though the interior is like a show piece. My staging abilities begin at the street and extend throughout your home’s grounds. As a certified Garden Designer, I can tell you the best way to make that first impression memorable. I have heard it said that staging costs too much money. Rather than as an expense, look at it as an investment. Staging is about spending the least amount of money to make more profit in the end. My fee for a consultation or an actual staging is going to be less than a price reduction. Most owners have furniture and household items to use. They don’t have to be new, just reusable. As a professional stager, I can transform a space with most of what the home owner already has in his or her possession.

Staging isn’t about decorating. It is about depersonalizing the space. A seller should want the buyer’s eyes drawn to the best features the house has to offer. It is about removing clutter, neutralizing colors, and making the house sparkling clean so these features show through. This sets your house not on par with the competition but places it a head above it.  |
