Top Tips for Staging a Tarrant County Home

In order to assure that the home you are selling is attractive to the buying market, you have to find a good, solid staging strategy to get the home sold. We will take a look at the ten top staging tips that can turn an ineffective listing into a home that attracts multiple offers.

Clean up the Yard. Add some plants to the yard for some genuine curb appeal and consider re-painting the front door for some added color.

Refresh the Foyer. This is the first thing a prospective buyer sees when he enters the home so keep it neat and attractive from the floor to the ceiling.

Use Color. If the walls in the home are neutral, add some colorful pillows, fresh flowers and artwork for providing some contrast and personality to rooms.

Kitchen Consistency. Be sure that all of the cabinets and counter tops match. Add some new handles to boring doors or put in a new backsplash behind a boring sink area. Scrub the kitchen from top to bottom to make it look fresh and clean.

Declutter. It is very difficult for a home buyer to picture himself living in a messy, cluttered home. Remove as many personal items as possible.

Highlight Great Features. If the home consists of great windows, high ceilings, a fireplace or other great architectural details, highlight these by strategically placing furniture in key locations so that they are noticed by the buyer.

Perk up the Patio. Clean the patio and add some style to it with modern patio furniture, lighting and other accessories.

Highlight the Master Bedroom. Use what is available to emphasis the best features of the master bedroom by repositioning furniture and other items. New window treatments could also be used to freshen up the room.

Avoid Bathroom Blues. Update the wallpaper, add a fresh coat of paint or some new hardware to make an otherwise dull bathroom take on new life.

Re-Define the Extra Rooms. Many homes consist of at least one “junk room” which often consists of a mish-mash of items. Home buyers want to see a purpose for every room in the home, so define each room as the 'office', the 'bar', etc. Please go to www.tombrewerjr.com for more information.
