Staging is different than the way we live. Most of us have taste specific décor and more furnishings than what you’d find in a staged home. I’m not saying the rooms should be sparse, but less is more when it comes to staging, putting the emphasis on the home's square footage.
The goal of staging is to showcase the home and its architectural details. That’s why we use a neutral pallet. We want the home and its architectural features to take center stage (pun intended).
Vacant homes will never capture the attention of buyers as much as a well staged home whether in person or online for several reasons: Buyers spend 35% more time in a staged home, it takes the guesswork out of furniture arrangement and lastly, vacant rooms look smaller.
Staging creates emotional connections with buyers, helping them visualize themselves living in the home. Kitchens shouldn't overlooked. The old school of thought was to remove almost everything from the counter tops. Wrong. While you don't want clutter, you do want buyers to feel a sense of "home".

Staging should always target the neighborhood's buyer demographic, but also take into account the style of the house. This home lent itself to a mid-century modern aesthetic. Instead of fighting with it NJ's Elite Staging kept a neutral pallet that worked with the home.
