Let's face it, most garage's end up being an endless overflow of junk accumulated through the years. From tools to furniture everything can be found there. Staging the garage is not only a great time to de-clutter and make things easier for the move, but it can also create additional revenue that you weren't expecting!
The garage is one of the rooms that frequently get overlooked and yet have a big impact on the sale of the home. Cleanliness is first priority. Since the garage is typically not clean and full of junk when a potential home buyer sees a garage that is orderly, clean and clutter free it subconsciously indicates to them that you take better than average care of your home.
Don't forget to paint! Remember painting is a great way to update any room and give the appearance of a nice clean property. Stay with clean colors, grays and whites usually work very well.
For added bonus and if you really want to rev up the male buyer, epoxy the floor in the garage! Epoxy not only tops off the pro look but also resists oil stains, beads water, and wipes clean like a kitchen counter. Color chips and custom paint colors hide annoying imperfections in the concrete! It's easy an inexpensive to do, but boy does it go a LONG way!
So when you are staging your home to sell, don't forget about the garage!
