When you're planning to sell your Tigard or Portland-area home, nothing beats having a team of motivated sellers, a Realtor with aggressive marketing skills, and a professional home stager.
When our company provided a home staging consultation to these sellers, they had recently combined households and knew they had too much "stuff" for selling their home; at just 946 sq ft, every inch was fully utilized in this Tigard, OR home.
We walked through their ranch-style home with their agent taking notes, and discussed options for dealing with excess furniture and miscellaneous items. They decided to get a POD (Portable On Demand) Storage unit -- and it worked wonders! I advised which pieces should stay, what to pack up, and how to arrange what was left to showcase the floor space in each room (as opposed to the "stuff" that potential buyers would find distracting). With our "Action Plan" the sellers were able to stage their home using our tips and working with what they already had.
UPDATE: This home SOLD in just 10 days!
This home had many good features that previously were hard to see due to all the excess furniture.
The family room had huge dark shelving units that overwhelmed the room; removing them created some nice breathing space ...


The master bedroom had a kingsize bed & distracting clutter so our plan called for swapping it out for a Queen bed ...


One of the bedrooms was being used as an Office ... but needed excess clutter removed to show the space & HW floors ...


We advised removing personal items from the Bathroom to make it look pristine ...

The kitchen needed a general tidying up and packing away of excess items ...

These motivated sellers were able to stage their own home using our consultation service, which includes advice on everything from suggestions on what furniture to keep, what to pack away, landscaping tips, paint colors if needed, light fixture replacements, and other easy cosmetic repairs. Their hard work paid off -- this home SOLD in just 10 days!
