Polly Wants to Stage It

You never get a second chance to make a first impression.  Home staging can offer you an edge in marketing your property for sale in today's competitive environment.

 I work with home sellers in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area.  Using the furnishings and accessories that the homeowner already has, I edit, neutralize, rearrange and stage their residential property for sale to potential buyers.

Call me before you need those all-important photos for the realtors' Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and internet.

Buyers are searching for an asset that might become their next home.  

Buyers will pay close attention to all photographs of your property posted on the MLS.

Buyers will compare your property with all other properties in your price range posted on the MLS.

Buyers will only make appointments to view properties that made a favorable impression on them.

Buyers almost always have issues with wallpaper and strong paint choices.

Buyers like clean homes.

Buyers like neat homes.

Buyers like tidy homes.

Buyers will always notice odors.

Buyers want to feel that the asset offered for sale has many possibilities.  They cannot see past your excess stuff and general clutter.  Be prepared to remove 1/4 or more of the possessions in your asset (your residential property) so that it shows well.  You may need to rent a storage unit.

That dwelling on the MLS stopped being "your house" and "your home" when you made the decision to offer it for sale.  This illiquid asset is now your highly expensive residential property offered for sale to perfect strangers.  

Professional home staging allows you to market your asset to appeal to the greatest number of potential buyers.  If you are serious about this process, call me.
