Perfecting Your Home for Prospective Buyers in Miami, Florida

Before you list your house for sale, consider the best way to sell your house: professional home staging. Some positive aspects of home staging include less time on the market and better offers. And you should definitely think about professional home staging if you need a fast home sale.

Look at staging your home as creating an "image" for your home like a manager would do for a famous politician. Just like creating an image attracts more positive publicity to a public figure, staging makes your house a more desirable listing on the market.

Preparing your home for an Open House shouldn't be thought of as a problem. At times, it's an eye-opening and creative project. Together, we'll work to get a high bid for your house. Start with this home staging advice and you'll see that your home sits fewer months on the market after listing:

Curb Appeal Checklist

Curb appeal is your best chance to make a strong first impression on buyers before they walk into your home. The pluses and minuses that jump out at buyers form their first opinion of your house and how you upkeep home's regular maintenance.Acknowledging this helps us to choose what measures we can take to draw buyers from the street and into your home. If your home isn't pretty on the outside with retouched paint and bright garden plants we'll need to tackle those as well. Refer to the Curb Appeal Checklist and add dollars to your home's final selling price.

Welcome Home Checklist

Does your house seem to say, "Hello From Your New Welcome Home" to a buyer? Walking-through your property with a buyer's eye, I'll advise you of arrangements that enhance Open House appeal. I'll tell you take away anything that gives the look of clutter. Table and counter tops should be neatly arranged. Arts and crafts, sentimental items, family photos, and kids' works of art should get moved out of sight. I can help you de-clutter your house. Unsightly or busy places make your home seem unkempt and buyers have a harder time seeing themselves calling your property "home".

Every room gets a once-over. I'll point out the pieces of furniture that should be rearranged, rooms that need a fresh coat of paint, carpet needing to be changed, fixtures that need polishing, and any other improvement that can inexpensively be made to positively impact the sale.

Buyers' agents know that their clients like a residence that seems comfortable. Personal items that could be "loud" should get moved out in order for your house to have general appeal at every showing.

Setting the Stage

In the short time that your house will be on the market, we're doing well if we're engaging the buyer's senses. Brightening up each room is of major importance, so we'll do things like draw back curtains and add lighting where needed to invite the buyer inside. Together we'll enhance the air of the house with enjoyable music to listen to while guests enjoy your home and assure a nice aroma flows from every room. We'll incorporate cozy-looking bedspreads, and place pillows on your couch and bedding. Buyers should feel like your house has the potential to be.
