This Seattle area starter home recently sold in fewer than 30 days on the market. The home was well prepared by the owners (freshly painted and clean) and the vacant property was professionally staged. As I reviewed these photos, here are some reasons why I think the staging helped in the quick sale of this home:
The home was the star, not the "stuff". The furniture and accessories selected were properly sized for the rooms. The furniture arrangement showed potential buyers how they could live comfortably in the space. The spaces actually felt larger after staging than they did when empty.
Color was consistent throughout, creating a feeling of cohesion. Orange, blue, yellow and green with accents of cream and and black worked with the architectural elements of the home. These colors also photograph very well. Studies have shown that over 80% of people look at homes online prior to deciding whether or not to tour them in person.
