One of the reasons why staging is so important in today’s market is that it no longer makes sense financially to do big remodel on your home before putting it on the market.
A simpler and more economical solution is to stage your home. If the budget allows this is best done by a professional stager. They are well worth the money, as homes that are properly staged tend to sell quicker. Don’t know any great stagers? We do! Give us a call and we will be happy to refer you to several people who “really get it done.”
If a professional stager isn’t in your budget or time line, the next best thing is to do a major de-clutter and deep clean. We’re not talking about losing a few knick knacks, either. We’re talking about taking about half of the contents of your home and removing it. Rent a storage unit or a have a big yard sale, but empty your house of everything but the essentials and then get it sparkling clean. This includes closets, garages, cupboards and under the sink areas. You want to project a spacious roomy feeling, nothing says cramped clearer than an overstuffed closet.
