THE IMPORTANCE OF STAGING HOMES

10-07-08
Dennis Sanchez


"PLANTS ARE LIKE CHILDREN THEY GROW
SO FAST"

With a few less pictures and a smaller plant the entry appears larger and more inviting. The focus is shifted from the plant to the openness of the space.


"IF YOU CAN'T
SEE IT, YOU
CAN'T SELL IT"

This beautiful home was hidden behind a wall of foliage. With a little branch trimming, instant "Curb Appeal" was created.

ASPTM Staging Tips

Try looking at your house "THROUGH THE BUYER'S EYES" as though you've never seen it or been there before. Any time or money invested on the following will bring back more money in return, and hopefully a faster sale.

INSIDE:

  1. Clear all unnecessary objects from furniture throughout the house. Keep decorative objects on the furniture restricted to groups of 1, 3, or 5 items.
  2. Clear all unnecessary objects from the kitchen countertops. If it hasn't been used for three months... put it away! Clear refrigerator fronts of messages, pictures, etc. (A sparse kitchen helps the buyer mentally move their own things into your kitchen.)
  3. In the bathroom, remove any unnecessary items from countertops, tubs, shower stalls and commode tops. Keep only your most needed cosmetics, brushes,perfumes etc.., in one small group on the counter. Coordinate towels to one or two colors only.
  4. Rearrange or remove some of the furniture if necessary. As owners, many times we have too much furniture in a room. This is wonderful for our own personal enjoyment, but when it comes to selling, we need to thin out as much as possible to make rooms appear larger.
  5. Take down, or rearrange certain pictures or objects on walls. Patch and paint if necessary.
  6. Review the house inside room by room, and
    1. Paint any room needing paint.
    2. Clean carpets or drapes that need it.
    3. Clean Windows.
  7. If you need room to store extra posessions use the garage or rent a storage unit.
    Leave on certain lights during the day. During "showings" turn on all lights and lamps.
  8. Have stereo FM on during the day for all viewings.

OUTSIDE:

  1. Go around the perimeter of the house and move all garbage cans, discarded wood scraps, extra building materials, etc., into the garage.
  2. Check gutters and roof moss and dry rot. Make sure they are swept and cleaned.
  3. Look at all plants... prune bushes and trees. Keep plants from blocking windows. "YOU CAN'T SELL A HOUSE IF YOU CAN'T SEE IT." Plants are like children - they grow so fast!!
  4. Weed and then mulch all planting areas. Keep lawn freshly cut and fertilized. Remove and dead plants or shrubs.
  5. Clear patios or decks of all small items. such as small planters, flower pots, charcoal, barbecues, toys. etc.. (Put them in the garage or a storage unit.)
  6. Check paint condition of the house - especially the front door and trim. "CURB APPEAL REALLY WORKS!"

DON'T TRY TO SELL ON YOUR OWN!!

Public Awareness Campaign: Don't Try This at Home
fsbo Sellers who use a real estate professional make 16 percent more on the sale of their home than do sellers who go it alone. Unrepresented sellers often do not understand the complexity, range and timing of tasks they will have to perform if they don't use a professional.

REALTORS® are real estate professionals who are experts in marketing and negotiation. REALTORS® can help a seller set a realistic price and ensure the proper paperwork and various disclosures and inspections are handled correctly. REALTORS® know best how to prepare a home and maximize value, provide broader exposure to the market and are more likely to generate multiple bids than a seller on their own.

In addition, REALTORS® are experts in attracting qualified buyers. A professional can show a home more objectively than can a seller who may be emotionally attached to the home, and who might become unnerved by prospective buyers' critical comments. The real estate pro also checks the financial capability and bona fides of buyers before allowing them onto a seller's property.

Use these materials to convince would-be for-sale-by-owners (FSBOs) of the value of hiring a REALTOR®.
