You have made the decision to sell your home, you have picked your Houston Realtor,
and, now, the process begins. So, what's the next step? It could be staging your home. Your home is a place that is comfortable to you, it works for you,
yet, it may not work for the masses. Therefore, a common step is to stage your Houston home and prepare it for a FAST sell. How do you so this?
A good idea is to get an impartial set of eyes into your home! You want to
select a professional with an ability to see beyond your personal attachment to
your beloved furnishings, and knows how to pull a home together that will be
easily walked through by prospective buyers and will showcase the nuts and bolts
of your home. If you have a picture of your family skiing or tubing down the
river, the prospective buyer may take time away from your vaulted ceilings,
great molding, or beautiful granite to see who lives here now, and, where did
they take their vacation. Therefore, one common idea is to place your personal
photos out of sight. Sometimes a home may have that PERFECT chair for dad, yet,
that chair looks like Dad watched a few Super Bowls and fishing shows in it and
is a little tired looking, or, may be a bit oversized in the room. So, a good
professional will know how to GENTLY approach this topic with you and work with
you on making the best decision on what to do with "Dad's Chair", for the sake
of a FAST sell! Those are examples of some of the simple ideas that often arise
during the staging process. A good professional will go beyond this and really
make your home clean and crisp and ready for Sally, Joe, Pete, Cindy or Harvey
to come and see if this home ... is for them!!
At the root of any good solution is a solid relationship. Choose a
professional to come into your home to stage it for a FAST sell that. One that
is willing to take their time and work with you in a manner that you are
comfortable with, and, gets the job done. This may not be rocket science,
however, it is your personal home, your time, and your money. You want to work
with someone who is thoughtful and experienced in staging a home and prepared to
help you accomplish your dream .... getting you to your next stage ... your NEW
home!!
