What To Keep And Hide In The Staging Process

Are you thinking about selling your home? Ever wonder how to stage your home properly to enhance/emphasize the highlights of your beautiful home? First, staging your home is an important part of the selling process because the pictures you are staging your home for are the first impression your home gets from potential buyers. If the pictures are not staged to represent your home well then it decreases the chances of more buyers coming to tour your home.

Tips on what to keep and hide when staging your home:

Tip #1: Minimize Family and Friend Photos 

To help keep yourself protected as well as your family and friends putting away photos is for your protection. Keeping clients protected is Lori Dibbs & Associates, LLC's number one priority for all their clients. 

Tip #2: Pear Down Your Personal Property  

When staging your home, you want to showcase the house to make it feel light and airy, so the buyers are focusing on the square footage, furniture placement potential, and storage. 

Tip #3: Take Away Rugs 

Although you want to have a rug at the front door, so potential buyers have a place to put their shoes, removing the rugs will highlight the floors and eliminate tripping hazards. 

Tip #4: Clear the Counters 

Taking away the soap, dish rags, and anything extra on the counters is a great staging technique. By clearing the counters, the photos will highlight all the counter space rather than making the counters look small because of the additional items on them. 

Tip #5: Put the Toilet Seat Down 

Having the toilet seat down when staging will make the home more inviting. 

Follow these tips when preparing to sell your home because it can support an increase in the number of buyers interested in buying your home.
