Home Staging Tip- Dealing with an Outdated Sofa and Chair

By
Real Estate Agent with EXIT Realty Beatrice Associates 9506757

Just posted an article on my Massachusetts Real Estate Blog about taking an outdated or rundown sofa and chairs and using inexpensive slip covers to draw a buyers attention away from them.  When buying a slip cover keep it solid white or nuetral and if you wnat to tie in color use throw pillows and or a throw blanket.

Kevin ~ we've used Sure-Fit slip covers because they fit tight on sofas and loveseats and if installed properly, many times you can't tell it's a slip cover.  They come in great neutral shades of sage, brown, tan, beige, which provides sellers a lot of options.

Slips covers are a wonderful idea for those sofas/loves and chairs that have been worn and are outdated.  Thanks for the blog.

Kevin, Slipcovers really can be a Stager's best friend.  It is a great solution that can also save the home owner some money, instead of bringing in rental furniture.

Good to hear a home stagers take on it.  It can really transform a living room.  It takes the focus off the furniture and puts it on the room.  Do you have any suggestions on colr Sally?

Sally - I agree with slipcovers.

Maureen - great advice and will check them out.

Kevin - stick with neutral colors they work with everything.  White, off white or beige are great picks.
