Staging Highlands NC Homes, What Matters Most

Staging Highlands NC homes makes selling easier and the question is what matters most during this process? Ultimately, the purpose of staging is to allow your home to captivate as many sellers as possible. This can be as intricate a process as a seller wants to take on. And, this can be as simple as cleaning and de-cluttering. However, there is always a place to start and spaces to focus on. An experienced Highlands NC REALTOR can offer sage advice on how to get your home ready for showings.

Where to start

There is no doubt that cleaning and decluttering is a great first step in the staging process. This is also a great time to pack items that you do not need in the short term. Pack up all items that are personal and reflect upon your life and your family as they can be distracting to buyers. Nothing repels buyers like a messy, unkempt home. As a result, take the time to have your home sparkle.

The living room should be a focus

It is hard to say that the living room is what matters most to buyers but it certainly can make a huge impact. The living room is a gathering place and people want it to be warm, inviting, and useful. As a result, on top of cleaning the space, you should pay close attention to how it works. For example, is seating arranged for conversation? Are the windows clean and embracing the views and natural light. If there is a fireplace make sure it is clean and looking ready to use. Additionally, artwork should be arranged so that it is appealing but not taking away the focus. Moving furniture around, or perhaps even removing a piece or two can also make an impact in helping a room look larger.

Every space matters

While the living room makes a great impact, every room in a Highlands NC home should be tended to. This includes closets, the garage, and bathrooms. Of course, next to the living room, the kitchen matters greatly. Make sure the counters are clear and clean. This is another valuable gathering spot and a place where families spend a ton of time together.
