Okay, when using ANY room in your house for ANY OTHER purpose then what it was intended to be is always a NO NO when selling your home. In this house we staged a few weeks ago, the bedroom were being used as kind of a dumping ground for all items that the sellers could not find space for.

When your home goes on the market for sale, you must ALWAYS  define each room and  restore it  back to it's original  purpose. This house was quite large and had 4 bedrooms. The RED room was designed to be a guest room and the larger bedroom was staged into a little girls room since the Master bedroom was completely staged and there was another bedroom which was a little boys room.

First, my A-1 Team member, MIKE...hey Mike, as you can see him up on a ladder, painted over the RED walls with Antique Lace by Benjamin Moore. This is a great calming color, I use this often. Then the decluttering process took place. It took many friends and family members to help these clients pack and store items that would or would not be following them to their new home.

The final step was the Staging. I always give sellers a detailed report and outline as to the decluttering, moving, staging process. This particular job did take several weeks but it was done in stages. But in the end, the house was transformed and is ready for listing...See the amazing transformations!

Please note that we were able to use all the clients own inventory which I always try to do whenever possible to help the clients not only save money, but to keep some of their belongings and personality in the home.

While staging is all about depersonalizing, I have never had a problem with RESTYLING what they already own and making it work.  ReStyled to Sell Home Staging specializes in taking what the clients already own and transforming it in to a totally new space. It is important to remember that buyers are there to buy your HOUSE, NOT YOUR FURNITURE!!

Don't think of listing your home for sale WITHOUT calling on the services of a Professional Home Stager.

So true Phyllis - the rooms need to have a clearly defined purpose.

So true - I hate to see a Dining or formal living room turned into a 'flex' type room - I think the rooms need to look the way the builder envisioned them - you are right on point

Phyllis ~ Beautiful!  What a difference.  I like how you still gave them their red in the one bedroom in the bedding and curtains.

Although storage is valuable in a home, it is NOT when it is an entire bedroom!  Great work getting the red repainted.
