Below, you’ll find General Staging Recommendations – expert advice to elevate your home’s presentation and appeal. This information is courtesy of our Preferred Vendor, Maxwell & Edison Interiors.
- Hire professional cleaning service to complete deep, thorough cleaning of the entire home, including baseboards, molding, light fixtures, etc.
- Consider having carpets professionally cleaned. Remove any area rugs that are stained or damaged.
- Touch up any paint on interior and exterior that is chipped, mismatched, or shows signs of wear-and-tear.
- Pare down knick-knacks and personal photographs. Store keepsakes and items of personal value or significance.
- Remove all visible medications, toiletries, etc. from countertops. Store out of sight.
- Keep closets neat and tidy - buyers will likely look inside! If possible, fill the closet to no more than half its capacity to make storage areas appear as spacious as possible.
- Remove any seasonal or holiday decor to avoid “time stamping” your photos.
- Consider adding a non-seasonal wreath and/or doormat for a welcoming first impression!
