Careful home staging is a proven method applied to sell a home here in BAKERSFIELD, California. Some positive aspects of home staging include less time on the market and higher bids. If you want to sell your home quickly, think about a well thought out approach to home staging.

Think of staging your house as creating a "style" for your house similar to what a publicist would do for a well-known entertainer. Just like creating an image attracts more popularity for a public figure, staging makes your real estate more inviting on the market.

Making ready your property to sell doesn't have to be a problem. At times, it's a fun and inventive project. Together, we'll work to get a top dollar offer for your house. Below are a few home staging tips to get you started:

Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your only chance to make a positive impact on buyers before they step foot into your home. The good and bad features that jump out at buyers create their initial opinion of your house and how you perform home's regular maintenance.Acknowledging this helps us to decide what plan of action we can use to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home's exterior isn't as neat as possible with touched up paint and bright garden plants we'll need to address those issues. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and add dollars to your house's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Can buyers picture themselves hanging out in your living area, reading a good book in your spa tub or studying in your home office? I want your Open House to pleasantly accept buyers and give them a sense of ease. I'll help you accomplish this by recommending changes that enhance your house's features. I'll advise you put out of sight anything that gives the appearance of clutter. Tabletops should be cleared off. Knickknacks, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get stored away too. I can help you simplify the decor of house. Less than inviting or cluttered spaces make your home look less spacious and buyers have a harder time seeing themselves living there.

Every room gets a once-over. Improvements that directly affect your bottom line include fixable like pieces of furniture that should be removed, rooms that need fresh paint, carpet that needs to be steamed, fixtures that need replacing, and windows that need washing

I'll ensure your home is appealing and that it's comfortable, staying away from "loud" or "too-bright" shades on the walls and furniture. And if you've already moved out, you can consider renting furniture. The goal is for your home to look homey as opposed to bare.

Setting the Stage

You'll know when to show your home, because all of the changes come together to set the stage for what buyers will expect when they consider buying your house. Dark rooms can be a real mood killer, so we'll do things like part the curtains and change light bulbs where needed to show off your property. Together we'll enhance the mood of the house with enjoyable music playing lightly and make sure a pleasant fragrance flows from every room. We'll add cozy-looking throws, and throw pillows on your sofa and bedding. Buyers should feel like your current home is their future home.
