Expert Chimney Sweep, Air Duct & Dryer Vent Cleaning in Langley, BC

How we live in our home is very different from how we prepare them for selling. You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Potential buyers have made up their mind in the first 30 seconds whether a house is right for them. Many of them already made their decision when they pulled into your driveway. The impression a buyer gets, when viewing a property is the single, most important factor in determining if your home sells for the price you want. Staging highlights a home's best features and architectural details, as well as minimizes flaws. In order for your home to appeal to the greatest number of potential buyers, it must be presented as clean, clutter-free, warm and inviting.

You're right. Chances are you are going to sell you house. It is a matter of when and for how much. If your house does not sell quickly, it can actually cost you money for marketing, advertising, continued mortgage payments and taxes. More importantly, the longer your house sits on the market, the more likely your asking price will be reduced. Even if your house sells quickly in a good market, it doesn't mean it sold for the amount it would have sold for had it been professionally staged. The best time to stage your property is before it's listed and shown. Staging it first will allow your property to make the best first impression on potential buyers and realtors. Once a home has been on the market without staging, it is much more difficult to get agents and their buyers back into the home. Remember, professionally staged homes can sell on average for 6% or more than non-staged homes!

Buyers only know what they see - not the way it is going to be. When you list your home for sale it becomes a product. Just like any other product for sale, your house must look its best and stand out from similar products in the marketplace. We know that potential buyers make up their mind 30 seconds after they walk through the front door. Today's buyer is interested in moving into a home that does not require any 'move-in repairs'. They do not want to patch or paint or remove wallpaper or replace flooring (any more than than you do!) They can't picture how it is going to look when all of your furnishings, toys, collections and personal items are gone and they can not imagine living there themselves. Professional Staged homes sell quicker and for more money because we can help create the 'model' home feeling that will entice any buyer from discounting your home and moving on to the next. First impressions count!

Basically - yes! Whether your property is at the lower price point or over a million dollars, staging will help present it in the best possible way to potential buyers. Vacant or occupied properties, older homes or new construction are all candidates for home staging.
