home staging advice portland or: Staged Homes are Selling Fast in Portland Oregon
- 08/14/15 09:23 AM
Staged Homes in Portland Oregon have been selling fast in 2015! As a busy home staging company in Portland Oregon, we've seen our staged homes sell faster in 2015 than anytime during the past nine years. That translates to happy sellers and listing agents! We've found that the best recipe for a quick sale is for sellers to listen to their listing agent's advice on pricing, and then to stage their home to make sure that potential buyers find it appealing. Why show a home "as is" when with a small investment and a little time it can look "move in ready," … (31 comments)
home staging advice portland or: Fresh Paint Can Help Sell Your Portland Home Faster!
- 11/09/13 02:54 AM
As a home stager in Portland, I see many homes that need some level of home staging assistance. Since potential buyers often make a quick judgment about whether they'll like a home when they first see it (online or in person), one of the best returns on investment a seller can make is to freshen up the exterior and interior paint on their home. Paint that is old, peeling, or with dated colors can make a home look like it hasn't been otherwise well-maintained. Buyers often think that painting a home will cost more than it actually does, which could discourage … (40 comments)
home staging advice portland or: Portland Home Staging Q & A: Can you Stage just one room in my home?
- 02/17/13 03:36 AM
As a home staging company in Portland OR, we are often called by homeowners and listing agents with questions about staging. In a recent example, homeowners were about to put their updated home on the market, and their formal living room (the first room you see upon entering) had been the "pool table" room. The sellers knew they should remove the pool table (they'd watched HGTV, after all) but they didn't have enough furniture to make the living room feel inviting to potential buyers. Their smart listing agent suggested that they hire Room Solutions Staging to furnish this room appropriately … (32 comments)

home staging advice portland or: Easy Updates Make a Big Difference When Selling Your Home
- 09/05/11 04:41 PM
Update: This staged home SOLD in just 6 weeks! Our Portland home staging company recently worked with a wonderful family to help them prepare their home for sale. In addition to staging this home, we also provided suggestions for easy cosmetic updates that were also cost-effective. When you're selling a home in today's challenging market, why give buyers an excuse not to write an offer? When buyers see outdated features and fixtures, it's too easy for them to walk away, and look for a home that's 'move in ready.' These sellers were open to painting the interior, which was needed to … (37 comments)
home staging advice portland or: Home Staging Tip: Simple "Tweaks" Can Make a Big Difference in how Buyers Feel About Your Home
- 07/08/11 10:00 PM
From previewing the online photos to an in-person viewing, buyers are making judgments about your home ~ everything from whether they can see themselves living in it -- to whether it's well-cared for, clean, and big enough for their needs. We recently staged an occupied home in Beaverton Oregon that had been on the market for several months but had no offers. The sellers selected a new listing agent, and also agreed to stage the home to make it more appealing to their target buyer. This home was already decorated very nicely, had great paint colors and was immaculate ... however, … (49 comments)
