Top ten tips for home staging

Home staging is often considered as an expensive service, which only wealthy property owners choose, in order to position themselves better in the relaxed housing market. However, the fact is that it is a process of decking up the interior and exterior of property, irrespective of its worth. So, if you are intending to sell your house soon, then do make the most of the top ten tips for home staging, which are listed below:

• Make sure the front door and entrance is clean. Bugs, cobwebs or any other unpleasant thing should not be prowling at the door.
• Make sure that the pathway to the front entrance is clear, with no shrubbery overhanging the garden fence or toys obstructing the walk of the potential buyer to the main door.
• Keep the carpets, stairs and floors clear and clutter free. To keep them free of stains, crumbs or dirt, make sure to vacuum them regularly.
• Things, like newspapers, toys, personal items, laundry etc, should be stored somewhere properly.
• Buy new bed sheets, cushions and pillows for all the rooms. This would be a small, but worthwhile, investment.
• Thoroughly clean all the storage areas, like closets, garages and basements. If your personal goods do not fit well in these spaces or look somewhat messy, then a potential buyer would assume that the storage space is not sufficient.
• Keep your house spotlessly neat and clean. The kitchen and bathroom should be so clean that it should look as if no one uses these rooms or lives there. Soiled towels should be removed and new towels must be placed. Showers, tubs and sinks should be free of scum, mildew, toothpaste, soap etc.
• Clean the windows for an unobstructed view. During the showings, you can draw the curtains off, so that sunlight can easily reach the rooms and make them inviting and warm.
• Treat the unpleasant odors, like cooking odors, pet odors, cigar smoke or garbage which needs to be removed.
• Depersonalize your house by removing all personal pictures, offensive artwork, religious items etc. Having a lot of personal objects in the house can actually distract the buyers. So, if you do not want them to focus on the wall hangings, more than your house, then pack away your personal junk.

Remember, purchasing a house is both, a financial as well as an emotional event. Thus, it is important that the potential buyers can connect personally with the house and imagine themselves living in that property. If a buyer is able to make a personal connection, then he is likely to make a bid and buy the property. By following the above stated top ten tips for home staging, you can surely make the prospective buyers to seriously consider your house. First impression plays a pivotal role in the home selling process. So, take advantage of these tips and ensure a great first impression on the prospective buyers of your house.
