What is Home Staging?
The public has become very familiar with Home Staging through such popular shows as "Designed to Sell" and  "Sell This House" on the HGTV cable channel.

Home Staging is the art of redesigning your home to appeal both visually and emotionally to the greatest number of potential buyers.  You have a very small window of opportunity to make this critical connection. 

There are numerous ways to DRAMATICALLY impact the appeal of your home.  Some examples are furniture re-arrangement, decluttering, painting, removal of worn carpets, updating window treatments and linens and minor bathroom and kitchen updates.  These are just a few of the many ways in which you can completely change the "feel" of your home.

"I can't afford to put any money into a house that I am going to sell; let the new owner make the changes!"
This thinking can guarantee lower bids and a longer time on the market for your property.  Potential buyers are looking for reasons to decrease their offering price; especially in todays market.  Many potential buyers are from dual-income families and/or have young children.  The one thing they don't have and CAN'T BUY is time...extra time to do all the things to your house that they want done before they even move in.  As this mental list of tasks grows...your chances of getting a bid shrinks.
