Staging....Before & After Photos
![]() Hodgepodge furnishings, heavy window treatments, sterile wall colors and family photos are a big no-no when selling your house. |
![]() Warming up the walls with paint, editing furniture & personal belongings go a long way into making this room appeal to more buyers. |
|---|---|
Color is so important when you are selling. Why risk having a buyer see a room in its original state? |
Now when a buyer walks into this kitchen, they will have completely different feelings and emotions about this room. |
The built-in bookshelves and fireplace are the focal points that need to be highlighted.
|
Carefully placed accessories and highlighting the fireplace, enticed a buyer with the very 1st showing! |
What is this room?
An office or a playroom? |
Proper furnishings and a warm paint choice, provides elegance and defines the room. |
At Southern Staging & Redesign, we take blank spaces... |
...and leave nothing to a buyers imagination. |
Southern Staging & Redesign can take a cold and sterile kitchen.... |
and make it warm and inviting. |
This dining area adjoined the formal living room without a chandelier to define the area, buyers didn't know what to do with the space. |
After staging, a buyer will recognize the space as a dining room and can imagine their families using the space for their holiday dinners. |
![]() This foyer had a dated floor that buyers couldn't imagine how to change. |
![]() After staging the entrance, the flooring wasn't that noticeable and buyers can now imagine greeting their guest in their new home. |
This vacant home had been on the market for over 1 year. It looks cold and lonely. |
After staging with furniture and accessories, a buyer purchased within 2 weeks. |
![]() Vacant rooms always appear too small. Buyers didn't think it was large enough for a master bedroom. |
![]() With the addition of a queen size bed and other furnishings, it's easy to see how much space this room has to offer. |
Updated room lacks emotional connection for a buyer. |
![]() Buyers now see a room where they can build family memories. |
An empty and sterile breakfast room |
Now, it's a cozy and friendly place to start the day. |
|
Now buyers can imagine themselves living in this space. |
Sometimes, it's difficult to visualize a rooms function. |
The function of the room is defined after staging as a breakfast room. |
Country decor is too taste specific for most buyers. |
Updated kitchen in country setting will appeal to a larger pool of buyers. |
Furniture arrangement, collections, & clutter can make a room feel smaller. |
Removing collections, clutter and changing furniture placement adds valuable floor space. |
Updated bathroom with not so great presentation. |
Which bathroom do you think a buyer is going to add to their "must see" list? |
Before home staging consultation. |
After home staging consultation. |
Don't underestimate the importance of online photos. |
Which kitchen would a buyer find most appealing? |
Another example of camera position and online photos. |
Better camera position and lighting can make a huge difference in MLS photos. |
Sun room steps out to deck is expected. |
Sun room adjoining master bedroom is more appealing. |
Clutter, personal decor and covered floors. |
Neutralizing the walls and removing rug, highlights the selling features of the room. |
