The best home staging tricks for selling homes

What is home staging?

First of all, it’s important to lay a good foundation. Home staging is a marketing technique or tool aimed at making a home look better, with the goal of attracting more interest and selling it faster, also for more money. In other words, it allows us to dress up a house to make it more appealing to the buyer, so they can imagine living there and are willing to pay more to not miss out on that opportunity.

To achieve this, we work on identifying and enhancing the property’s strengths. From there, we use furniture and accessories to transform it while spending as little as possible and maximizing profitability. What we do know for sure is that by applying these tricks, the first impression (which is what counts) will improve. So it’s time to get to work.

The 5 definitive tricks

Depersonalize your home

The first thing you need to do is remove all personal items, the ones that give a home its unique personality. What we want is for the other person to fall in love with the living space and imagine living there, so they won’t want to see pictures of other families. It’s also important to aim for an impersonal look that appeals to everyone, like the feeling you get when entering a hotel or an Airbnb-type apartment.

Do a deep clean

We apply home staging techniques to ensure that the potential buyer has a better impression of the home when viewing the photos and wants to see it in person. Cleaning is also important, especially regarding removing furniture, objects, and keeping everything more clear and tidy.

Make necessary repairs and apply a good coat of paint

Although home staging for selling does not involve typical renovations, it is important that everything looks in good condition, so that the potential buyer does not use it as an excuse to ask for a price reduction. To do this, fix anything that is broken and apply a good coat of paint to the house. For example, light gray is in style and will look more modern. You can also go for a basic color like white or beige.

We want more light

Now that we spend more time at home, we need light. Improving brightness is another trick you should put into practice. You can achieve this with lamps with neutral light between 4,000 and 6,000 k, transparent blinds, mirrors that bounce light, etc.

Take care of the little details

Finally, to succeed, take care of the little details and add elements that bring a sense of home. For example, a beautiful jute rug, vases with plants, a decorative wall print, etc.

With these tricks, your home will look nicer and is sure to sell faster. Good luck!
