What is home staging?
Did you know that there is a set of techniques that allow to enhance a house and give an attractive appearance to potential buyers? The concept is known as Home Staging and literally means “staging a house”.
This technique was developed approximately thirty years ago in the United States and for quite some, it has begun to be implemented around Europe, in countries such as Sweden, France or the United Kingdom. The objective of this “staging” is to condition the property, to sell it for the best price and, as quickly as possible!
What is it made for?
One of the biggest handicaps that we find in the sale of homes is selling houses with a lot of personalities and marked decoration. Why? It is very simple, potential buyers have a hard time imagining themselves living in it, so they finally decide not to make a purchase offer.
This was one of the main reasons why the concept of Home Staging began to be implemented in real estate. It helped to increase the sale of properties!
How do I do?
First thing you must keep in mind when depersonalizing the property so that it’s liked by the largest number of people and allowing them to imagine living in it, is to highlight all the strong points and minimizing the weaknesses, without trying to hide the defects of the house, but rather the opposite, fixing them.
The idea is to turn the house into a neutral and cosy place where potential buyers feel comfortable without the need to decorate the house in excess. Therefore, we would recommend you to visit some of our homes for sale and get inspired by them!
