STAGING YOUR HOUSE:
When the Sellers decided to get their home cleaned up and ready to go on
the market, they knew that they would have to work fast and get results. So, they
invited a group of friends over for the weekend to help. They created a productive,
fun-filled working environment by turning their gathering into a three-day spring
cleaning party. Everyone had a great time. They accomplished a lot, and with
beautiful results.
Passersby would certainly stop and admire the lush, green, manicured lawn.
Fragrant flowers bloomed and flourished in shapely beds that were freshly
mulched, edged, and trimmed. Perfectly sculpted shrubs lined the perimeter of the
landscape, and traced the front of the house and along the porch. The bright, clean
exterior siding looked brand new. The windows sparkled and shined in the
sunlight.
Inside, visitors would be welcomed by the warm feeling of freshness and
light. The beautiful hardwood floors were buffed to a glossy mahogany shine.
The spotless carpets complemented the freshly painted walls. Everything looked
brand new. The house was immaculate.
One evening when they took a break from working, Rick and Lisa sat down
to watch television. Rick was absentmindedly flipping through the channels with
the remote control when Lisa saw something that caught her attention.
“Hey, look at that,” she said as different images flashed by on the screen.
“What?” Rick asked.
“Turn it back for a second.” Rick flipped back a few channels until Lisa said,
“there.” They landed on an Arts and Entertainment Lifestyles Channel. One of
those “Sell This House” television shows was on.
“I’ve heard of these shows before,” Lisa said. “They work with people
whose properties are not selling. The expert comes in and shows them how to
redesign the layout and décor of each room to make the house more appealing.
Then, they have an open house, and the house sells fast.” The television show that
they watched teaches people different home staging techniques that home sellers
can use to make their home more enticing to potential home buyers—so that it will
sell faster.
