Want To Sell Your Home Faster? Try Home Staging!




By Marie Borges

Home staging tells homeowners how to prepare and market their
home for sales in the real estate market. Professional home
stagers are professionals that help you in preparing your home for
sale. They help you create a very good first impression on potential
homebuyers by taking care of your house and its appeal.

Professional home stagers rearrange your home's furniture,
making it more organized. They help you redesign your house so
that it appeals to potential homebuyers in the market. They can
also suggest and in some cases, purchase furniture or fixtures to
make your home show it's absolute best!

To put it differently, they make your house sellable with their
design experience and expertise. Home staging is particularly
useful where prices appreciate slowly and finding a buyer takes a
lot of time.

The Home Staging Process

¡¤ The first impression is the key to a good offer (read: high
price) and quick sale. Most buyers make up their mind even before
entering the house! That is why it becomes so vital to create a
winning first impression. A real estate agent may be good at
marketing your house, he/she may know what makes it sell but in
all probability he may not be able to help you do it. This is where
professional home stagers come in. They help you prepare your
house for the best first impact.

¡¤ Zeroing in on a professional home stager is not difficult.
You can ask your friends and acquaintances who have recently
sold a house for reference. Your real estate agent or company can
also help you in this regard. In all probability they might have
already utilized the services of the professional home stagers in
your area.

¡¤ Once you have zeroed in on a few home stagers, the next
step is to find out the cost. It is always good to get an estimate
from a few home stagers. Mostly it is a quick and accurate process.
You should then make calculations and comparisons. It is always a
good idea to discuss estimates with them before making a final
decision.

¡¤ It is also important to take into account others factors like
the state of your home, asking price and average time the houses
are on sale before a deal is clinched. Asking price is the most
important factor. If the asking price is low, it may not be feasible to
hire professional home stager, more so when the higher price is
not in tandem with the cost involved. All these factors go a long
way in helping you make an informed decision of hiring a
professional home stager.

¡¤ On occasion your real estate agent may also contribute to
the charges of your professional home stager. This is done when
your real estate agent is convinced that the charges are
reasonable and the investment is worthwhile.

Doing It On Your Own

If you don't want to spend money and hire professionals you can
do home staging on your own. Here are few tips on do-it-yourself
home staging:

1) Clean your house, yard, kitchen bathrooms, drapes, and
carpets. Wash the windows.
2) Make your home organized and less cluttered. This will
make your home look neat and spacious. Remove all the
unnecessary objects.
3) Get your home repainted.
4) Check the floor. It might need refinishing.
5) Change furniture and fixtures to make your house more
appealing. You can buy try borrowing or renting.
6) Remove unnecessary pictures. Rearrange others.


Home staging can help your house sell faster and at a better price
than you probably would be able to without any preparation. The
thing to remember is that your home should appeal to a wide
variety of buyers. The best way to do this is to use neutral colors
and rich fabrics.
