For the last 7 years I have passionately
been working as a Staging Professional.
Thinking this service would complement my Interior
design services; I took an accreditation course
with The Canadian Staging Professionals. Since then I have
watch this side of my business grow at a very steady and
demanding rate.
What is staging and does it work? Staging
is literally putting your house and home on a stage. Putting
your house on a show; where a desirable life style is displayed,
for potential buyers to see and wish for.
We want to show something that will make an unforgettable
“First Impression” so that
they can see themselves as being part of this exciting show.
The stage must be set free of whatever is going to distract
the potential buyer’s attention from appreciating
the architectural features of the home, the space available
and its potential.
This is why de-cluttering is so important, especially of
family portraits, toys, ornaments, plants and anything that
it is going to give a negative impression.
De-cluttering also applies to furniture. Oversized furniture
that is blocking and entrance, a window or doors, will only
tell a buyer that the place is too small.
It’s important also to show each room as its intended
purpose. For example finding a dining room used as an office
space; will rob a buyer of an image of a family dinner party.
Lighting is also a very important. Letting as much light
into the house will make it feel spacious and give a sense
of wellbeing. Artificial lighting is just as important,
especially for night showings; good lighting will create
a cozy atmosphere that will say I can relax in this room
after a long’s day at work!”
Master bedrooms are another important selling feature in
today’s market. Buyer’s busy life styles
have created the need for a master bedroom that offers a
“retreat” were they can relax and enjoy before
going to sleep. Making a bedroom attractive, relaxing with
a touch luxury is a must!
Bathrooms too have come a long way since fluffy mats and
toilet seats cover. Today’s bathroom has to offer
a “Spa” experience. Especially en suit bathrooms
have become a place where you can close the door and pampered
yourself!
The outside of our house is just as important; You want
to show that you have taken good care of the outside and
kept it in very good conditions just as much as the inside.
So make the path to your home inviting and exciting, as
it would be to be walking on a red carpet!
Make your potential buyers feel that they are about to see
a show that they will want to see over and over again! When
they move into your house!
