Although location and price are important factors when selling a property, the influence of home staging on the attractiveness and selling price of a property should not be underestimated. Home staging refers to the art of presenting a property to potential buyers in the best possible way by making it attractive, inviting and functional.
Here are some tried and tested tips for optimising your home with home staging:
Decluttering and cleaning:
Start with a thorough tidy and clean of your property. Remove personal items, unnecessary furniture and clutter. A clean and tidy environment makes the room appear larger and more inviting.
Neutralise the deviceAvoid eye-catching colours or unusual decorations. Instead, opt for a neutral colour palette and contemporary pieces of furniture. This will help potential buyers visualise how they would personally design the room.
Maximise the natural lightOpen curtains and blinds to let in as much natural light as possible. Well-lit rooms look more inviting and spacious. If necessary, add cleverly placed lamps or lights.
Emphasise the functionality:
Show potential buyers how the rooms can be used by furnishing them functionally. Make sure that furniture is placed in such a way that the flow of traffic is not impaired and the rooms appear open and spacious.
Invest in small improvements:
Small improvements can make a big difference. Consider replacing outdated fixtures, freshening up paintwork or adding fresh floral arrangements to make a positive impression.
Professional photography:
After all, the quality of the photographs is crucial for the online presentation of your property. Invest in professional photography to present your property in the best possible light and attract the interest of potential buyers.
By implementing these tips, you can optimally prepare your property for sale and increase the chances of a quick and lucrative sale.
I am aware that most clients who want to sell a property do not want to spend extra money upfront to make investments.
However, I would like to point out that "old" flats with heavy built-in furniture, wallpapered walls and glued carpets on parquet floors are no longer for sale.
We have therefore started to work more and more with home staging. In collaboration with a lady bursting with ideas, we first clear out old-looking flats, then renovate them (if necessary) and finally "whitewash" them with modern furnishings. This works wonders! The costs invested beforehand can easily be recouped afterwards and the sales success follows very quickly.
Most men already admit it, in over 90 % of cases the woman makes the sales decision and for her a beautiful appearance counts.
That's why it has to "click" when you enter the flat. In the case of old furnished flats in need of renovation, most customers only see the amount of work, the associated costs and the time required.
Today's generation wants to live and not spend their time doing extra work.
These sales used to work, but times have changed.
Alternatively, the flat can be sold in a state in need of renovation, but at a correspondingly greatly reduced purchase price.
More and more customers are realising this and are already voluntarily painting their property for sale.
We help you to make a quick and successful sale:
We co-operate with the people who take care of clearance, renovation and home staging.
