Staging can be as simple as adding some candles to inside a fireplace to moving some furniture out of a room to make it feel larger.

Here are some tips for properly staging a home:

  • Remove the clutter and clear out the closets to make the home appear more spacious and orderly.
  • Remove family photos, religious symbols, or any other items that may prevent a visitor from envisioning themselves living in the home.
  • Furnish the home, but don't overdo it. A vacant home looks spacious but has no emotional appeal. Add furnishings, so visitors can envision themselves living in the home.
  • Bring the outside in. Open the windows if it is nice outside. Bring in fresh flowers and greenery. Steer clear of scented candles, incense, and artificial air fresheners-they can turn off prospective buyers.
  • Do a thorough cleaning and dusting to make the home look immaculately clean.

Remember this simple rule when it comes to furniture and decorating. Less is more!
Don't forget to clean.  A clean home will invite buyers to stay in your home longer and want to purchase your home.
