Stage your home with Sonia!

1. A clean home is a SOLD home. Before you show your home to potential buyers you need to clean it from top to bottom. Now I don’t just mean a light weekly cleaning, I’m talking baseboards, chandeliers, windowsills, and even steam cleaning the carpet. Be sure to also remove any lingering pet odours or food odours.
2. Don’t clutter your guests with clutter. Flat surfaces in your home, chairs, and hallways are usually subject to clutter. It’s normal for us to place random pieces of paper, clothing, and miscellaneous items down on these areas. However, in order to properly stage a home, these areas of your property must be free of any debris.
3. Nothing beats fresh air and bright lighting. If feasible, crack open the window to get some fresh air circulating throughout your home. Pull your curtains back and let the sun’s rays shine inside, it will do wonders to any room in your home!
4. Depersonalize. This little tip can be the most difficult thing for any homeowner to do, and yet it is so effective. If I had to depersonalize my office and remove all the leopard printed items from it, I would struggle to do so! But that’s exactly what is necessary in order for you to sell your home. You need to remove any photos, awards or achievements, sports paraphernalia, and articles of clothing from your home.

There are numerous aspects and techniques when staging a home, and I truly enjoy helping my clients prepare for the selling and showing process. If you’re interested in placing your home on the market give me call today! Together we can find the right buyer and sell your home for top dollar.
