Being home stager I worked closely with my clients to de-clutter their home and get it ready for lising and staged before hitting the real estate market. We began with De-cluttering which can be difficult for clients at the best of times with so many emotions attached to their home and their belongings, Fortunately, my clients were motivated, we began with gettinga storage locker and the pictures tell a story...
Not exactle the same angle but i am sure you get the picture!.. First rule of thumb to good home staging is to DECLUTTER and CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN if its all your client can afford these are the must do's next off is a coat of Paint to give a fresh look and smell.. If you can match up the paint you may only need one coat depending on when it was last painted. oops we must not forget the carpet cleaning, if you cannot afford to hire someone, rent a carpet shampoer from your local grocery store for a weekend.
'We brougt this L shaped sofa up from the downstairs media room and added an "Accessory Package" to suite their home and budget. Again if your client does not have much of a budget be creative. borrow stuff from their family members if necessary, no one wants to buy stuff when they are moving as it may not suit their new home.
I think everyone was please with the outcome... which house would you linger in?

Yet another run to the storage room, Home Staging is not just about good placement of furntiure, art and accessories, its about the whole package of cleaning, de-cluttering, painting, curb appeal and everything in between, the furniture and accessory package is the attractive Icing on the house.

Every home needs updating in some way or another. realtors and home stagers can "PAIR" up to give added value to a home owner and ensure their home is on the "TOP 10 must see properties"
