Outside Appearances are Important

Scanning the internet of homes for sale in my local area is always interesting as a Home Stager.  It is interesting because it gives me an idea how in many cases, home owners do not understand the importance of looking at their home through 'buyers eyes'.

Looking at a home through 'buyers eyes' needs to start at the outside of a home and continue all the way through to the back garden.  The outside of your home is your first impression, so you need to make sure that you create a great first impression so that you can entice prospective buyers out of the car, down the path and in your front door!

This home is on the market for mid to high $500,000.  The garden although established is overgrown, not only obstructing the view of the home, but also providing prospective buyers with the impression that they will need to spend a lot of time tidying up and maintaining the garden. 

There is structure and symmetry to this garden, but again it has become overgrown and does not create a good first impression.  

This house screams work, work and more work!












So if you are thinking of selling your house, or are wondering why it hasn't sold, walk outside and take a look at the first impression you will be creating through 'buyers eyes'.   Remember the outside is just as important and the inside.

Presenting a home for sale is more than cut flowers in a vase

It's serious business, and can be the difference between a disappointing sale price and a fantastic result!

These days, there are a range of services and options that promise to achieve top dollar for your home's sale. And in a slow market tinged with uncertainty, it might be just the help you need.

An uncertain market doesn't mean sellers need to settle for lower prices.  Home Staging is an investment that helps homeowners avoid a lengthy, expensive and period on the market.

Internationally, preparing your home for sale has been a common practice for over 20 years.  The term ‘home staging’ refers to ways in which you can create a positive impression on potential buyers. In the same way stagehands prepare a stage for theatre or production, home staging helps home sellers ’stage their home’ to impress potential buyers.

Creating a favorable first impression with a buyer is crucial in securing their confidence in a property. The more buyers you turn off by not having your home properly presented, the longer it will take to sellm which can mean additional advertising dollars.   It is a sad fact but statistically, the longer a property is on the market, the less a seller may receive because the market views the property as one where something may be wrong with it."

Unlike major renovations, home staging is a simple and inexpensive way to prepare your home for sale.

Home staging is about identifying buyer’s wants and using this information to create a buyer-friendly home. It involves using simple techniques such as de-cluttering and correctly placing furniture to attract as many potential buyers as possible, as well as make your home stand out from the crowd.

Home Staging Creates a LifeStyle Buyers Want!

Home Staging is a brilliant way to showcase a home to potential buyers and enhance your chances of selling.   Home Staging helps your home sell!!

Statistics have proved that when searching for a new home, buyers view homes that are attractive in photos. In fact, 93% of home buyers start their search for a property on the internet?  Of this number 74% will drive by homes that interest them before they decide if they will make an appointment to view a property or attend an open house.   This sure doesn't make it easy for sellers, particularly in a market that is slow with an abundant supply of competition.

Home Staging helps both the seller and real estate agent gain an advantage over homes that have not been professionally staged, as you will be presenting a 'picture perfect' product and lifestyle that potential buyers are looking for.

Professional home staging creates an environment that helps buyers imagine themselves living in your home.

Pictures paint a thousand words

How would you feel if you viewed this room?

Now how would you feel if you viewed the same room that had been professionally staged?

It certainly would be more of a 'wow' factor wouldn't it?


Buyers Eyes
When it is your home being sold, it can be difficult to see your home as buyers do.  It is important to see your home through 'buyers eyes', as within 90 seconds of viewing your home; buyers will develop an attitude toward your house that is reinforced by everything else they encounter - having your home professionally staged will ensure those first 90 seconds and first impressions are positive.
