Platinum Hme Stgaing, Inc.  Entry Before

Upon entering this house as a Buyer looking for a home, where would you go from here?  Human nature would say, "To the left, that's where the living spaces are."  However in this home the floor plan is flipped. Guest bedrooms are on the 1st floor, the Kitchen, Living spaces and Master bedroom are actually located on the 2nd floor.

 

 

Platinum Hme Stgaing, Inc.  Living Room BeforeFollowing their instincts, Buyers and Realtors when looking for a huge kitchen and living room would immediately turn left to three empty bedrooms, and were a bit befuddled.   Once Buyers and Realtors DID go up the stairs this is the area they would be "welcomed" by.  Would you be interested in this home?  Nobody else was....  So for seven months this house that is located just steps away from Ventura Beach sat on the market with little interest.

 

 

So after taking the home off of the market for a short period, partnered with a new Realtor and a grand marketing plan, the new Realtor suggested that the home should be Staged.  She had worked with us on a prior property just a few blocks away, which sold in 3 weeks - so she was confident in the results Staging would be able to present.

Now after Staging, if you were a Buyer entering this home, THIS is what you be presented with.  The eye is brought to the right where the entry table and marketing materials are located and spotlighted.  The plants and artwork immediately bring your eye to LEAD you up the stairs, to be presented with THIS grand living space.  Yes, Home Staging DOES lead the Buyer, but only in possative ways and to the right places and focal points when presenting your home for sale.

Yes Connie when my husband and I went looking for house to build (and some of these were models-Yikes!) they also had what I now call "the upside down" plan-----

Needless to say we didn't buy or build one!  Nice work!

Great job.  What's better is tht you have a good relationship with a realtor who believes in what you do.

Hope this one sells quickly also

Nice work, Connie!  You're right, professional staging has a strategic component to it that people often overlook. You nailed it!

Hi, Lori ~ In this beach community most of two story homes are built this way because the lots are so small and the garage takes up a good portion of the 1st floor square footage.  But homes in this area rarely come onto the market, so buyers "new" to the area would be very confused.

Cathy ~I would never "mis"-lead you =)

Virgina ~You are absolutely correct, and THAT is golden

Leslie ~ Thank you, and yes, correct home staging by a professional WILL lead the buyer's eye to where you want them to go.

This looks like one of our typical townhome plans in Houston.  Yes, I think staging makes you want to keep going up the stairs.

Hi Connie -- Even the little details, when added together, make the whole picture much more than the sum of its individual parts.  You do spectacular work!
