Nb: Home staging is the american term for what we british people understand as home "doctor"
What is “Home Staging” and
How Does it Help Sell My House? by Lori Matzke
“Home staging” is
not a new term, but for many homeowners and estate agents
the concept of “professional home staging” is
shedding new light on how to promote a home in the property
marketplace.
In past years, homeowners were left to their
own discretion as far as preparing for home showings.
Though they could occasionally rely on an agent for instructions,
more often than not estate agents were just as perplexed
at working out the details as the homeowner.
While agents are experts in the field of selling and
closing, very few have design savvy. Agents usually know
exactly what factors can help sell a home. It’s
just not always easy to get a home into selling condition
in a timely manner without some sort of experienced assistance.
Most people decide whether to buy a property in the first 11 seconds. So First Impressions Count!
