Why Stage Your Home?

If you are considering selling your home in the near future, you have likely been looking into preparing your home and getting it in tip top shape! One of the best ways to guarantee you will receive top dollar for your home is to stage it. As your local Moorpark Real Estate Team, we always offer our clients complimentary staging services. We find that it really does make all of the difference when a buyer sees your home. From the way the photos appear to the way the buyer feels when they first set foot in your home – staging matters. When a seller has too many personal touches inside their home it can make a buyer feel like they are just visiting someone else’s home rather than envision their own family in the space. It can also be very distracting. If a home is entirely empty, it can feel cold and impersonal. A vacant home can also feel surprisingly smaller than a furnished home!
When considering staging your home you will want to start with a deep clean. This will allow for a fresh palate to start with. You want to make sure that you also remove any and all smells from your home to the best of your ability. Certain smells can be a significant turn off for buyers as they feel the smell will never leave the home or just leaves a bad impression. You want to make sure that you stage the home based on who you feel will be buying the home. You will want to stick to that buyer’s budget and lifestyle when styling the home. Pick a few key rooms to stage and remember that sometimes less is more. You want to stage just enough to make it feel welcoming but not cluttered.
