Today’s real estate environment is challenging – even for the most prepared homeowner. With home inventories at record levels, presenting your home to its best advantage, maximizing your investment and reducing your home’s time on the market, are critical. Buyers make purchase decisions within minutes of stepping into your home, often buying on their initial, emotional reaction.

Preparing your home to sell means having a clear, objective sense of how your home appears to potential buyers. Homeowners who have lived in, loved and raised families in their home can lose the objectivity required to prepare for their home sale – especially in a saturated market. Staging often doesn’t require major changes but does require taking time tested steps to maximize your home’s appeal to potential buyers. Staging may include:

• Polishing the curb appeal
• Paring down clutter
• Editing furniture and accessories
• Rearranging rooms to maximize space, traffic flow, and special features

The home staging process may also entail in recommendations for minor repairs, small investments in paint or the potential upgrade of some feature in the home. Recommendations are carefully considered to maximize your return on investment for any repair or update made to your home.
