Home staging has exponentially gained popularity. It is a home-sale must. Realtors and home-sellers, alike, swear by the ability of great home staging to swiftly sell a property with ease.

You’re likely familiar with the end product of a successful home staging. But what about the steps it takes to get that picture perfect look? Read on to get the behind-the-scenes intel on the process of staging your home.

Home Preview and Consultation

First, before design brainstorms and detailed mood boards, an expert home stager meets with the real estate agent or home-seller (if the house is marketed FSBO). Here, the home staging professional discusses budget, property specifics (such as size and number of rooms to be staged), and exchanges neighborhood expertise and tips. This may be things like potential home-buyer demographics. Read more about the initial home preview from White Orchid Interiors team member, Marisa Harris.

De-Clutter

How home staging works if the house is empty, is that a professional home staging expert will design a home staging program from the ground up.

Home-owner still living in the house? Not to worry. How home staging works in this instance is as follows. A professional home staging company works to remove personal items, knick-knacks, and extra decorations from the living spaces. Therefore, when it comes to home staging: less is truly more. As a result, unnecessary furniture pieces are moved to storage. It’s imperative to remove personal decor from the home. This allows potential home-buyers to visualize themselves in the space. A great home staging program presents an artfully decorated, move-in ready home. This ensures the next owner is able to make the home entirely their own.
