This stunning 6659 square foot home is a perfect example of what home staging, neutral paint choices and fabulous photo's can do to sell your home fast!  This home sold for $90,000 profit, less than a year later.

(thats a very good return on your money for painting a few rooms!)

This home has some AMAZING Before-and-After photo's!  There was no remodeling, just decorator paint colors were chosen.

As a seller you need to prepare your home for the market, most buyer's want to move in without updating the house.  You need to choose a realtor who will use a photographer that will show your homes best features! 

This living room is absolutely incredible with the cathedral ceilings, fabulous french windows and gorgeous trim details!  The harsh curtains were removed and softer colors were added to this room.  The camera angle showcases the 25 feet ceilings.

This dining room had a bright color and the camera angle was wrong!  Softer colored paint showed off the gorgeous millwork and outlined these unique windows.

The wallpaper was replaced in the kitchen with paint and a better camera angle.

This breakfast eating had the wallpaper and drapes removed.  The angle of the photo showcased the high ceilings.

Loved the cathedral like rooms especially the pillars within the marble bathroom. The staging before and after was very well done and once again nice photos.  It seems you have a knack for it. Keep up the good work!

Pippa - I enjoyed the tour of the home.  Great job on recognizing the need for neutralization in certain parts on the home.  An Open Floor PLAN is critical and the staging changes are fabulous!

It is amazing to see the difference that the proper camera angle (and some paint) can make.  I ran a business in the mid-90's that provided photography and printing/marketing for Realtors, and I was constantly amazed at how poor some of the photos were that agents would give us.

Loved this tour.  Paint certainly can make a difference.  I tell buyers all the time when they get hung up on certain color, that it can be painted.  Easy fix but it is difficult for some buyers to see past it.  Your post is great to show sellers what a difference paint can make.

Great before and after photos! Loved the post Pippa. :-))

Great pictures. This is a good reason why home owners should invest in home staging when they want to sell their house. It doesn't cost to stage,it pays. Great post.

Pippa,

I absolutely love your blog and I'm from that area and all my family lives there so I'll keep coming back to you.  Hopefully I can pick up some of your tricks!  Thanks for sharing.

Awesome difference, If a homeowner only paints & cleans, de-clutters they can get so much more for their property.. 

How much did this home sell for? it looks like an amazing piece of property

Great work, they were fortunate to have you as a home staging consultant
