HOME SELLING ADVICE - Staged for Sale with 'before' and 'after' pictures

Reblogger Lyn Sims

STAGING YOUR HOME WORKS!  Well that's the 100th time I've said it here on my blog.  Here are some great before & after pictures from a victorian home in Rockford that Michelle Hess from Simply Staged worked on.

People want to see a home they can live in, not 'how it could look' or 'how it should look'.  There are just too many homes on the market for buyers to choose from and they will just go on to the 'next' one.

Don't be a 'next'!.  We're outta' here!

Original content by Michele Hess

Touring this Rockford Victorian home is truly an exploration.  With the many rooms the home seems to go on and on.   Each room still showcasing most of the original detail from when the home was first built.  Even the door hinges are a work of art.  If you like the charm of the older homes, you will love this Rockford Victorian.

Lyn - Pretty dramatic photos.  I get it and don't understand how some sellers can ignore the obvious.

Hi Lyn, thank you for sharing the photos.  Many people don't have the ability to mentally visualize beyond what's in front of them and look past the emptiness and junk.  What a difference staging makes for the visuals people require to show the true potential.

John:  It's great you get the see the transformation.

Tamara: As you say, most people cannot visualize their furniture without a representation in a room. True potential is an excellent word because obviously the house looks better staged.
