Stage it First! Toronto Home Sellers ~ Are you staging your home to sell??

As the word spreads about Home Staging, more and more people are choosing to have their homes staged by Professional Home Stagers before putting them on the market.  Is this something you have thought about? If not, why? Did your Realtor advise you about staging your home before listing it?

Some savvy Real Estate Agents know the importance of properly presenting your home in it's best light and that is why you will see more and more agents working with Home Stagers or Staging homes as part of their marketing package. What does this mean for you?;  It means that your home will be assessed by a Professional Home Stager who has trained to prepare your property with the 'eye of the buyer' in mind. If your agent doesn't suggest hiring a home stager, ask why? It is in your best interest as a homeowner to market your home in the most innovative way that you can. Shouldn't this be something that your agent informs you about? Don't wait until your agent suggests a price drop. Staging your home in Toronto can cost as little or less than  1% of the asking price depending on what needs to be done.

 A Professional Home Stager will make an appointment with you to do a walk through of your entire home. At this consultation appointment the Stager will give tips on things you can do to make your home more appealing to a wider variety of buyers. She may make recommendations for paint, furniture placement, and even refer trades people to help with your project. You can choose to do these tasks yourself or have the Home Stager complete some of the project or all of the project.  Before having an open house, the Home Stager can come and put the finishing touches on everything from ~ placing decorative items in the rooms, to dressing the bed. The choice is yours.
