Make Your Home Shine – Staging Tips for Success!

Published | Posted by Leah Goertz

We all know there are so many different layers to selling your home! It can be overwhelming and daunting, but it doesn't have to be scary! From curb appeal to final touches, these smart tips will help you prep your home like a pro—and get it sold with confidence.


1. First Impressions Matter!

Did you know most buyers know how they feel about a home within those first few seconds? Focus on curb appeal and standout before they've even stepped foot in your door. Powerwash the porch, freshen your landscaping, and add a few decorative touches such as potted plants and a doormat to your entryway.


2. Declutter and Depersonalize!

Yes, your kids and your pets are adorbs, but buyers want to see themselves in your home - not you. Less is more! Pack away personal photos and extra knick knacks so that people can envision themselves in the space.


3. Touch-up and Repairs.

I call this the "honey-do" list! That list you've been putting off for months? The time is now. Replace the baseboard that your dog chewed up last year. Finally get around to replacing your blinds. Touch up the walls to clean up any scuffs or chips - or put a fresh coat of paint on the walls. Consider a lighter shade to really brighten up the space!


4. Deep Clean Everything.

A sparkling home sends the message that it’s been well cared for. Pay attention to baseboards, windows, and bathrooms—details matter.


5. Let There Be Light!

A bright home immediately appeals to the senses, creates a cheery atmosphere, and can make any space appear more spacious. Replace bulbs, open the blinds, and add lighting where applicable.


6. Price it Right!

Work with a local realtor you trust (Hi!) to guide you through market data, provide a comparative market analysis so you can price competitively and strategically.
