Speaking Up about Home Staging

Staging helps bring in an offer in 4 days for this Owner Occupied Property

When I was called out to meet an agent that I work with regularly last week for an owner occupied consultation, he informed me that they were told they were receiving an offer on a home that we had staged 4 days earlier.  I showed you the before and afters of the master suite in my blog, Making a bedroom feel like a Master Suite.  The owner and agent were both thrilled. Unfortunately the home hasn't gone AC yet in MLS, so I have to assume that they never came to terms with the particulars, but I'm confident that they will receive another offer and turn it into a ratified contract very soon.....

The Master looks FAB!  BUT...(do I sound like the Freemans?)...was that a knifeblock I spotted on the kitchen counter?  I tell everyone to put them away.  I say it's a feng shui principle, but it's really for everyone's safety.  Works so far... Happy Staging, and don't be a stranger!  Julie

Amy - Thanks!  It is... now if only they would actually get a ratified contract, not just offers!

Julia - Ok, you got me.... the kitchen was actually so sparse I was fumbling to find anything to add interest - I'll definately consider removing the knives next time.

Julianna - Thank you!  The owner was really pleased as was the agent.  That is always a bonus!

Melissa,

I liked the Before & After pics the best since they show such an amazing transformation -- congrats on a quick offer, I'm sure others will come in soon!  Question:  did you supply much inventory for this occupied home?
