Dress for Success!

This Home Sold in 15 days! It was dressed for success.

Like most of us, an occasion to get all dressed up can be an opportunity to pamper ourselves and have a little fun doing it. We may spend the morning at the spa (schedule permitting) for massage, manicure and getting our hair done. Probably another half day was spent at the mall (factory outlets) finding that perfect dress or pantsuit to wear. Once the makeup has been carefully chosen and applied we select the perfect jewels to complement and finish the look. A hint of perfume and you’re all set...because your feeling good about you and it shows....you are now ready to conquer the world!

Think about this now...your house (or clients') is going to receive guests, potential buyers, people that will be looking for possible flaws and reasons not to buy. Your home should be treated no different and like you requires special attention for the big event. It needs be polished and shined and painted if necessary. The bedding, curtains, towels are to be crease-less and crisp for they are the outfit(s) chosen to make the house special. The flowers and candles are the jewels to complement and finish look. Add a delicate fragrance to the air for the finishing touch. Now your home is ready to take on the world (of potential buyers)!

Did anyone happen to notice the run in your stockings? I would be willing to bet they didn’t. Because you looked stunning everyone failed to notice the slight imperfection, instead they were captivated by your beauty and seemly flawless appearance right? And it went unnoticed.

Same is true of your home...people will see past those tiny imperfections because they are overwhelmed with the beauty of your home. You have given them a reason to see past them and envision themselves and their family living in your home. They have made an emotional connection and that is what you set out to do! You have captured the world...or in this case the buyer.

So, before calling in a Realtor or if you are the Realtor listing the home, think first about calling in a Stager. Stagers are the spa for your home specialists|. With a trained eye we will tour your home and give you advice on what is needed to give your home the advantage on the market. Often requiring as little as a few hours and for a lot less than you would think. Take your home from BLAH to BEAUTIFUL! And bring in the BUCKS!

Remember Realtors you are people too. Your first impression of the home is very important and will reflect how you market the home…think about using a Home Stager as a marketing tool for potential or existing clients.

Give us a Call …it’s cheaper than a day at the spa!
