Small Spaces only Look Smaller When Empty - Have You Thought of Staging in Wake Forest NC?

Reblogger Leesa Finley

So, to stage or not to stage.......

I get asked on numerous occasions whether a seller should consider a stager for their home in Wake Forest NC when putting it up for sale.  My almost instant answer is YES!  While there are some incredible sellers out there that just "have an eye" for their own space and highlight the properties features outstandingly well there are others that just don't.

While we may be speaking of occupied homes what about the vacant homes?  Staging does transform the occupied home into a more inviting space what staging does for VACANT homes is astounding!

Take a peek at this post by Diana Young and I think you'll be amazing in the transformation!

This cute Crown Hill Seattle bungalow is hitting the market today.  The living room has great natural light and features hardwood floors.

Here is the "before staging" photo of the living room.  Would potential homebuyers searching the internet see this as a charming space to come home to at the end of the day?  Would they be able to picture a comfortable furniture arrangement?  Would they fall in love with this house?  Maybe...

 

Staged living room:

Yes, it is true:  Small spaces only look smaller when empty.  This living room not only looks larger with properly scaled furniture, it is welcoming and inviting to potential buyers.  Now this home says, "Move in and enjoy!" to  people searching on-line for a cozy in-city retreat to call home.

Sure makes a huge difference!  Sellers should always consider staging if they can.

Craig - Diana really did do an amazing job showing the difference in the before and after photos.  Staging just makes sense!

Laura - Your welcome!  Check out Diana's blog = she has way more helpful information!

Carol - You are right - it can get expensive but, like you said, if a seller can do it then it is WELL WORTH it!

Great staging. I am a big fan. Most buyers can not see the big picture without furniture
