Home
staging is more than decorating, coloring and furniture adding. We can say that
all aspects of making and decorating your home combined into one are known as
home staging. Home staging makes your home look better, brighter and bigger
than its original size. It is a common practice that the homes that are staged
exceptionally are sold quicker than the ones that are not staged well.
Dean
Graziosi explains staging your home like putting colors into a blank picture. We
can summarize things used in home staging as follow:
- usage of fabrics like silk, satin etc
- Usage of decoration pieces, mantles, small furniture items like ottoman, mirrors, indoor plants etc.
- modifications in color themes, window curtains, carpets, rugs
- addition of shelves, books, artificial flowers and lanterns
Dean
Graziosi believes that use of all these items in right proportion is what we
call home staging. Dean Graziosi is an expert realtor. He is in the field of real
estate since more than two decades. He entered in the field of real estate at
the age of 18. His first real estate deal was a run-down apartment building. Since
then, he has never looked back.
Today he
is a motivated public speaker, a bestselling author and runs a series of
infomercials on national American channels since 1998. Being a realtor, Dean
knows what kinds of things actually work with buyers.
First Step:
First
step of your home staging involves changing and enhancing appearance of your
outdoor. You can never expect buyer to be impressed from interior of the house
if he was shocked after seeing a messy patio and a pool filled with leaves.
Second Step:
Make
your home free of any clutter, any extra furniture or decoration. Filling up
your home with extra furniture will make it appear messy and untidy. Remember
to set the furniture in center of the room, especially in case of drawing rooms
and living rooms. Leave enough space from sides so that the traffic can pass. Add
ottomans and other small items to make give space and create eye catching
changes.
Step Three:
Now that
your buyer has requested you to show the house, you must clean it beyond
normal. Clean every nook and corner, shelves, mirrors, floor, ceiling each and
every decoration piece of your home. Remember clean and tidy house will put a
great impact. A home that is well cleaned and well kept gives a very good
impression on buyer. Spray something fresh just before the buyer is about to
come. You can use any fragrance for this purpose. This attitude will show the
buyer how serious and organized you are when it comes of maintaining your
house.
Step Four:
When it
comes of coloring walls of your room, you can use any color if you know how to
carry them. However, it is more simple and easy to tackle if you go for beiges,
white, yellow, mild shades of gray, green, red, pink and blue. Lighter colors
make your rooms appear bigger and brighter.
Step Five:
Give
your house a warm and cozy touch. Remove all kinds of personal belongings if
you are currently living in the house. Keep your home clean all the time, as if
a buyer is about to come. You can always contact a home stager to give your
home a professional and better home staging service.
