Staging Your Home
Price is one thing, but how you show off your home can be the difference between closing a deal and watching one walk away.
Staging your home means presenting it in the best light. Sprucing up the curb appeal, giving the inside a new shine. This usually takes place before the For Sale sign goes up. Your SRES® knows what buyers are looking for and can help you get your home looking its best.
Some ways your SRES® may suggest you go about staging your home are:
- Light landscaping (weeding, trimming, mowing the lawn, etc.)
- Making necessary or cosmetic repairs (leaky faucets, sticky doors, etc.)
- Hiring a service to thoroughly clean attic-to-basement
- Rearranging rooms so they appear bigger
- Putting valued possessions in a safe place
The staging process can be stressful because you’re being asked to rearrange your home for the sake of someone else. Your SRES® understands this can be emotional for you and your family, and will be at your side, supporting you all the way through.
