Sellers Guide: Home Staging Tips
If you are thinking of moving and listing your home in the Windsor real estate market one of the key steps you’ll take is getting your home ready to sell. When buyers are searching for Windsor houses for sale, their first impression could mean the difference between viewing the home and passing on it. This impression will almost always come from photos and how your home is presented. That is why how your home is staged is so important. Now don't get confused, no you do not need to hire a professional stager who is going to bring in furniture, however, it is an option. Most people can stage their home all on their own, and below you’ll find some great tips that are easy to do by yourself and make your house stand out among other Windsor homes for sale.
Let’s start with home staging. Essentially you want to get your home ready for buyers to view. This means cleaning your home from top to bottom. Right down to the nitty gritty like carpets, dapes, kitchen and bathroom tiles, walls, ceilings and trim. Then declutter by getting rid or storing items in your home that make rooms feel small. Finally, you’ll want to organize and do a final tidy up. If your home has empty rooms, stage it with the right furniture to illustrate the potential of the room.
Second is open house day. Having a successful open house can help generate quick interest in your home from buyers. Before you leave to let them in, make your rooms bright and airy by opening blinds and windows and turning on lights, and help those walking through envision themselves living there. For your own security, make sure you store all your valuables.
