Considering putting your home on the market and want a quick sale? Then you should definitely look into home staging.

Home staging is the process of reconfiguring a particular space to make it more appealing to potential buyers. This could involve moving furniture, introducing new furniture or lighting as well as using soft furnishings and accessories to add style to a space.

Take a look at our home staging services here and keep reading to discover why home staging will no doubt help you sell your property quickly.

First impressions are everything

A property will be staged before a house is put on the market. By the time an estate agent sends a professional photographer round to photograph your property, it will have already been staged and look in tip top condition.

We recommend booking a photographer to come the same week that your home has been staged, this will avoid any inevitable mess being made.

When potential buyers are searching on Rightmove or any other online property market, the first impression will always be the photos. So, if they are of the highest quality and represent a beautifully staged and presented home, a potential buyer is far more likely to book to go and view that property.

2. Visualisation

Staging a property to maximise it’s selling potential means that buyers are going to be able to visualise themselves living there.

If a house is full of ‘stuff’, this distracts from the selling points of that particular property. Staging provides a fresh and clean space that is styled accordingly to make the most out of the square footage that is available.

3. Staging takes away the personal element

Properties that don’t go through the process of staging are usually full of personal items, whether this be photographs or particular objects that are personal to them.

Yes, this is what houses are for however, in order to maximise the chance of selling your property quickly, you want to do everything you can to make sure the potential buyer can visualise themselves living there.

Staging will swap out any personal photographs or possessions with more universal and stylish alternatives.

4. Shows the true potential of a space

Someone is more likely to put in an offer on your home if they can see the full potential of the space. Through staging, we succeed in showing buyers how best they can use a particular area to suit them and their family.

For example, we added a large six seater dining table to the kitchen pictured above to show how this is a large enough space to entertain friends and family.

5. Creates balance

Home staging will ensure that each room in your home feels appropriately balanced. By this we mean that it doesn’t feel too trend led or makes too much of a stylistic statement.

When decorating our homes, we love to express ourselves and our personal style. However, this doesn’t always work when it comes to selling your property.

A home stager will balance out the colour palette and overall look of a room by simultaneously introducing and taking away any furniture, artwork and accessories that is needed.

6. Clutter is a turn off

If a house is full of clutter then you’re less likely to get people to view your property. Even if they do go ahead and book a viewing, once they step through the door they’ll be an immediate sense of negativity.

However, when a property is staged, a buyer will immediately feel positive and uplifted because it has been transformed into a warm and welcoming space.
