Home staging is a proven method of selling faster AND for more money. Staging to sell means appealing to the most people in your target market, to speed up the sale and achieve the best price. As soon as your house is on the market it’s being judged and compared, and you need to give it the best possible chance. Staging your home will set it apart in the crowded market where you might also be competing against new build show homes. Our homes reflect our own taste and lifestyle but to sell it needs to be a blank canvas that makes buyers want to move in. Few buyers have the imagination to see past dated décor, clutter or walls of family photos – but we can make it easy for them! “Your house is your biggest asset and it makes sense to invest a little time and money before you market it. You could be throwing away tens of thousands of pounds or wasting months on the market unnecessarily”. But won’t it cost a fortune to stage it? We aim to spend minimal time and money for maximum results. The rule of thumb is to spend approximately 1% of the property’s value on staging. Compare that 1% to accepting a lower offer of say 10-15% of the asking price, and you can see that a little effort and investment up front makes a lot of sense.
BEFORE The spare room was being used for ironing and storage and didn’t show how the space could be used as a bedroom
AFTER Serious de-cluttering, room layout chnages and the addition of a rug and some cushions and throws, the room looks more spacious, relaxing and inviting
It’s very difficult to see our own home through the eyes of potential buyers. A professional will assess your home objectively and with in-depth knowledge of the target buyer enhance your home to speed up that sale and get the best possible price. We also strongly advise on having professional photos taken and we work with a local interiors photographer to make your home a showstopper! Whether you are just thinking of selling, or have been on the market for a while, we can help! We offer a variety of packages ranging from 3 hour ‘Speed Staging’ if you’re already on the market, or just need some minor tweaks to full-scale redecoration and furnishing solutions for empty homes or those in need of updating.
