It’s no secret that first impressions are everything when it comes to real estate. Here’s why professionally staging your home can be the difference between a multiple offers and a stagnant listing.

Empty homes look cold and uninviting.

Buyers have a hard time envisioning their families, lifestyle, and furniture in an empty space. Also, vacant homes make flaws (wall scratches, damage, dirt) more obvious. Staging a home not only hides eyesores but make rooms more inviting, updated, and bright.

Non-staged rooms look smaller than they really are.

It is hard to perceive space without having context. Furniture and placement of wall decor help a buyer understand the physical space and dimensions of a room.

Un-staged spaces don’t tell a story to buyers.

Just as we look for beautiful hotels and vacation spots, buyers also search for the “perfect” place – one that is aspirational, inspiring, and easy to picture themselves in.

Before you put your home on the market, make sure you are working with a professional home stager who understands space, design, and what your real estate market wants!
