Three Phases to Home Staging

01.

Maximizing your Furnishings and Decor so the buyer see’s your listing as “Home”.

You will be amazed at the dramatic transformations I will be able to accomplish in a single Staging Day using what you already have! Successful home staging must make financial sense and I am experienced and trained in making the most of your current furnishings and accessories in order to turn buyer traffic into offers. We will start with a Consultation and Detailed Staging Report in order to assess your space.

02.

Recommended Purchases or Rentals as “Investments” in Selling Your Home

Working within your budget, I will only recommend purchases that will reduce days on the market and drive higher offers. During the Staging Day, I will bring in accessories in order to get fantastic photos for your Realtor’s marketing efforts and to attract internet traffic. Over 95% of home buyers are online searching for homes BEFORE they request a showing, so we want to make an excellent first impression and increase your properties showings.

03.

Home Improvements for Higher Offers

Depending on your budget and timing, we may suggest paint, flooring, lighting, and other improvements that reduce the likelihood of price reductions and days on the market. These strategic updates can be financed with our Pay at Close program.

8-Steps In Each Room So Buyers Fall In Love

Nancy's Place Home Staging + Designs believes that successful staging is the art of using marketing and design techniques to create an environment that buyers can “aspire” to.  “If I buy this house, I can live like this.”  At Nancy's Place Home Staging + Designs we use the art of “positioning” to create several “emotional connection points” throughout the home so that when a buyer steps into the house they “feel home.”  This is it.  This is the one. 

What does “feeling home” look like?  For Nancy's Place Home Staging + Designs, it’s a combination of eight things we analyze in each room in order to create a lasting impression for the homebuyer:
F
First Impressions

We will walk through your home room by room, taking note of our first impressions, what grabs us, what glares at us, and what gives us a feeling of home.

E
Eliminating Clutter

The packing starts now, as we pack away a good percentage of everything in the room in order to create a more clean, open and spacious feel.

E
Emphasizing the Positive Elements of the Space

Finding your beautiful focal points, we will emphasize what we love about the room and hide or distract the negative aspects of the rooms.

L
Lighten Up

Focusing on lighting and color, we will make each room into a bright, warm and inviting space buyers can respond to.

H
Home Buyer’s Appeal

In order for a buyer to “feel home,” they need to not be reminded of this being your home.  We’ll depersonalize the space while retaining the warmth and fun of photos.

O
Obligations - Cleaning and Repairs

The dirty work speaks for itself but is often overlooked because you’ve lived here for so long.  Let’s get rid of the buyer’s mental repair list by doing it ourselves.

M
Modernizing

This involves updating your style and building simple accessories out of what you already have to create clean lines and form.  In some cases, we’ll recommend purchases as valuable investments in the staging process.

E
Emotional Connection Points - Creating the “Wow Factor”

This is the fun part and is a huge focus of our positioning strategy.  We’ll show you how to build in these subtleties in order to make the buyers subconsciously desire to live here and “feel home.”  The “emotional connection points” are where marketing strategy really comes in to play.
