When you're preparing to sell, first impressions are everything. Staging your home the right way can help it stand out, attract more buyers, and even sell for a higher price. Here are our best home staging tips to make your property irresistible:
1. Declutter Every Room
Less is more. Remove personal items, excess furniture, and anything that distracts from your home's features. Create a sense of space.
2. Depersonalize Your Space
Buyers need to picture themselves living in your home. Take down family photos, bold artwork, and personalized decor.
3. Deep Clean From Top to Bottom
A spotless home feels well cared for. Clean baseboards, windows, carpets, appliances, and bathrooms thoroughly.
4. Maximize Lighting
Bright homes feel more spacious and inviting. Open all curtains, clean windows, and add extra lighting where needed.
5. Neutralize Wall Colors
If your walls are bold or dark, repaint them with neutral tones like beige, soft grey, or white to appeal to a wider audience.
6. Boost Curb Appeal
Your exterior is the first thing buyers see. Mow the lawn, add fresh mulch, plant flowers, and touch up paint or siding as needed.
7. Rearrange Furniture Strategically
Create clear walkways and highlight focal points like fireplaces or large windows. Use furniture to show how rooms can be used.
8. Stage Key Areas First
Focus on the most important rooms: the living room, kitchen, primary bedroom, and bathrooms. These make the biggest impact.
9. Freshen Up the Air
Eliminate odors (pets, cooking, smoke) and add a subtle scent, like citrus or vanilla. Avoid anything overpowering.
10. Add Finishing Touches
Use fresh flowers, new towels, or decorative pillows to add warmth and style without cluttering the space.
