Written By Lorna Rayner

This Key outlines what type of staging would suit each type of property. Often there is more then one way to stage a particular property - you can you use this guide to choose which services you would like to explore.

There are many different ways to stage a property. Throughout this series I will outline all the ways you can stage a property, to suit different budgets and property types.
However you decide to proceed you will find that undertaking any of these options will improve the appeal of your property on the market, leading to a quicker and higher sale or rental value.

Unoccupied Properties: Vacant homes are notoriously hard to sell, it is very hard to visualise living in an bare space and often rooms can appear a lot less appealing and versatile when they are empty.

Occupied Properties: Our homes represent who currently lives there. Their lifestyle may not necessarily appeal to the next buyer of that home. Home Staging in occupied properties is all about making a home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers, thereby selling a property quickly and for more money.

Part 1 : Rental

Show Home with Furniture + Accessory Rental

Create a stylish interior with rented furniture and accessories. Designed and installed by a professional show home designer this will create the ultimate impact and lifestyle vision appealing to online browsers and viewers alike. Once the property is sold the furniture and everything else will be removed. This service has proven results and requires minimal effort as everything will be arranged for you.

Accessory Rental

Accessories can turn an unoccupied furnished house into a home. Accessory rental packages include bedding, lighting, rugs, art work, and home accessories for all rooms including the kitchen and bathroom. Tired furniture can be cleverly transformed drawing the focus to the lifestyle vision rather then the well used sofa. Accessories will be installed and removed by a professional home stager. Often the rental cost will be significantly less then the cost of buying everything yourself.

A furniture rental company will deliver and position your furniture in each room, however you will need to plan what furniture you need, choose the style and decided where it is to be positioned. You could add your own accessories or rent them to finish off the look.
