Preferred Staging firmly believes that every property is unique, so when we approach a house for staging, we need to take into consideration all of the wonderful features that the house has to offer. We stage each house to highlight its best features, and work with the challenges. Each house, therefore, is staged a little bit differently.
Last week we staged a fabulous house in the Evermay area of McLean, Virginia. It's a split level house with a large and open front foyer, which is very welcoming. However, from the foyer you can see into every main room of the house - the dining room, kitchen and family room, living room, and finished basement. What a view! And this was our main challenge - to stage each room visible from the front foyer so that it was warm and welcoming, but also with focal points that would invite buyers to walk into the rooms to experience each space further. The longer a buyer will linger in a room, the more interested they can become, and hopefully envisioning themselves living in that room. This is a major first step in the buying process.
Our team staged this large house in just one day, and when the Realtor stopped by as we were finishing up, he stood in the foyer and looked around him and into each room. He was thrilled with the results!
The Broker's Open the next day was a huge success, and we are expecting a sale in the very near future! Before and after photos of this property can be found on the Preferred Staging gallery.
All the Best,
Monica
