Getting The Highest Price for Your Home Staging your home is important. Many buyers will stay in your home longer if it's staged appropriately. We have compiled some ideas to present your home in the most effective manner.    BC Realty, LLC's Personal Home Staging Tips for a Faster Sale: First impressions count! Roll out the red carpet for potential home-buyers by sprucing up your entryways, especially the one on a lock box. Welcome mats, planters filled with seasonal flowers, and clutter-free foyers and hallways set the stage. Sell the space, not your stuff. Remember that the goal of a successful showing is to make a prospect feel a home - like it's theirs, not yours! Put away your extensive personal collections. LESS IS MORE: open up your space so prospects can actually see what they're buying. Paint & elbow grease work wonders. Fresh paint and a thorough cleaning will give you the greatest "bang for your buck." Remember that neutral walls are the best bet when your staging a home for sale. Check out Lowes.com for fun tools like the Paint Visualizer. Go with the flow. Arrange furniture for easy traffic flow. Consider placing a major piece of furniture at an angle, such as a couch or deck. Angles add interest and can create a more open feel. See the light. Move lamps to dark corners and arrange window treatments so that natural light floods your rooms. Brighter is better, and your rooms will look larger. Visit Lowe's extensive lighting section for the latest in fashionable, functional lighting. Go green. Live plants can add decorative flair, without spending a bundle. Plants and cut flowers have a way of warming up a room. Don't forget the Outdoors. If you have a porch, deck or patio, clean the furniture and replace worn cushions. Breath new life into your deck with a fresh finish; Lowe's has a variety of deck staining and sealing products that are easy to apply. Make the kitchen sparkle. De-cluttering the counter-tops by removing toasters, food processors and other non-decorative items. If you have a breakfast table of counter, put a couple of table settings complete with place mats, napkins and dinnerware. Warm up an empty home. If your home is vacant, consider renting furniture for key rooms, but don't go overboard. Ask a member of BC Realty for advice on selling points. Leave the work to the experts and professionals, after all that is why you hired us.
