Home Staging Atlanta Helps Secure a Contract Only Hours After Listing

And for full asking price! Music to my ears! 

I had staged two houses that week and both went under contract in a matter of hours. The other agent called and said "Can you say, zero days on market?" Needless to say, it was a great week. As a home stager in Atlanta, my objective is to help sell homes more quickly. 

In the home pictured below, we were used the homeowners existing furniture on the main floor and replaced the bedroom furniture in the master. With the exception of the master bedroom picture, the after pictures were taken by my favorite Atlanta Real Estate Photographer, Iran Watson.

Here's the entrance before home staging:

Here's the after picture. As you can see, it's the same entrance table. The tapestry on the wall, while nice, was all too consuming.

Entrance After Home Staging

Here's the living room before home staging. This was taken from me walking into the living room from the entrance. Notice the back of the chair? Not good.

Here's the living room after. By moving the love seat into the formal, and by placing the couch on the wall, we opened up the living room so that you can see the size of the room.

Dining Room Before:  I had folded back the table cloth to see exactly the condition of the table.

Dining room after: We replaced the light fixture, removed the table cloth as well as the window treatment - the results, a more sophisticated look.

Master Bedroom After Picture: As mentioned, we brought in all new items as a master bedroom is "key" to a buyer. I took this after picture.

With this Atlanta home under contract - the homeowner intends to move closer to her children. It thrills me that I was able to assist her in making that happen quickly.

Kathy - Fantastic results!  The whole home has a lighter, brighter feel now.  So glad you replaced all the red lamp shades with lighter, neutral tones.  Before, the eye went straight to those demanding shades!  Lovely.

It is amazing how great we can make the seller's furnishings look.  Good call on replacing that chandelier!  That added a lot of value.
