3 TIPS FOR EFFECTIVELY STAGING YOUR HOME FOR SALE




As anybody who has ever sold a home knows quite well, it takes a lot more than sticking a For Sale sign in the front yard and hoping that potential buyers will love it as much as you did.

In order to get the best price for your home and pique the interest (and bidding power) of buyers, you need to take some time to stage your home so that it looks and smells - yes, smells - terrific, inviting, and worth every dollar of your asking price.


The following four tips can help home sellers effectively and attractively stage their home:

 1. Consider new window treatments

 Take a look at the various window coverings in your home and ask yourself if they look new, clean, and in excellent condition.

If the answer to any of these questions is an honest “no,” then consider getting some new window treatments. Home window treatments are available in a variety of textures and colors, and can make a huge difference in the quality of light that enters a room.

 2. Upgrade your tile with paint

As HGTV notes, bathrooms have been known to help sell a home, but old and shabby tile will definitely steer potential buyers away faster than you can say “avocado and almond tile.” Because replacing tile can be on the costly side, sellers can repaint them. After coating the tiles with a primer (be sure you purchase one that is marked “high adhesion”), paint the tiles with a ceramic epoxy coating. This relatively easy and low-cost job can really help update the look of the bathroom without having to spend a ton of money on new tile.

3. Tone down an old fireplace

 Sure, that brick fireplace in the living or family room looks great during the holidays when it’s festooned with stockings and the various trimmings of the season, but the rest of the year it really doesn’t do much for the look of the room. To lessen its visual impact, try adding a thin coat of paint to the bricks. In order to avoid the mortar, you do have to paint one brick at a time, which can be time-consuming. But the pay-off of painting your fireplace is well worth your patience when you have a new neutral focal point in your room. One additional tip: to make sure the fireplace blends in as much as possible, choose a color that closely matches the surrounding walls.

 These are all very simple inexpensive ways to give your home a mini facelift. Talk to your Realtor and come up with a game plan to get your home ready to sell!
