Selling your home involves a lot of different steps. One of the most critical steps in preparing your home for sale is home staging. Today we are very excited to be joined by one of our favorite home stagers, Victoria, from Voilà Designs by Victoria. She is here to discuss with us why staging is so important when you are trying to sell a home. 

When you are selling a home, you have to understand that it is no longer your home. It has to be viewed as a house, a piece of property, a business investment that you want and need to sell. If you want to sell in today’s market, you’ve got to appeal to today’s buyers. This is where the home staging comes in.

Maximizing the space is one of the most critical aspects of staging. You have got to show the rooms to be as large as possible. Staging to sell is different than staging to live, so you’ve got to always have today’s buyers and their perspectives in mind. Maybe your home is a little older, so bringing in some fresh, new touches may help immensely.

When Victoria stages a home, she is looking for something modern, fresh, and clean. It’s really important that all of the elements of the home look as visually compelling and visually appealing as possible. When you have a vacant home, it doesn’t really translate to the buyer and doesn’t show as well with photography either, which is another important part of your home sale.
