This week we are talking about the importance of staging your home to attract more offers and to sell it fast. According to the BusinessDictionary, home staging is the act of making an unfurnished house look lived in to entice buyers to purchase the property. The goal is to make the buyer feel at home when he or she tours the property. This gives them an idea of how furniture could be placed and how much space will be available when it’s furnished.

Below are 5 tips for staging your home on a budget that will help you sell your house fast.

1. Curb appeal

The entrance to the house is the first thing buyers would notice. Add charm with plants and nicely painted facade. After all, first impressions last.

2. Paint

This is an inexpensive way to make the overall look of the house appealing. It is important that the paint color matches the decor and furniture for a cohesive look.

3. Define rooms

Maximize even a small home by creating separate spaces for each function. This gives the buyer an idea that every inch of the home is usable.

4. Declutter

Even though the goal is to make the home feel lived in, it should still look immaculately clean. A messy house is a major turn off for buyers.

5. Depersonalize

The idea is to let the buyers see themselves living in that house. Tuck away family photos and memorabilia during an open house.

There are several ways to stage your property to make it enticing for the buyers. A well-presented home is a big guarantee that it will sell fast. What other staging hacks have you tried? Share your thoughts.
