If home sellers can afford to hire professional home stagers for the $50 to $150 an hour they normally charge to get an Oviedo real estate property ready to be seen by prospective buyers it may be worth it. But, if home sellers would prefer to have a hand at it for themselves, then take a look at some inexpensive ways to stage Oviedo real estate to get the property sold.
Depersonalize the Property by Packing Personal Items
If home sellers are serious about listing their properties on the Oviedo homes for sale market it means they are planning on moving. Why not get a jump ahead on the move and help get your home on the homes for sale in Oviedo real estate market noticed by depersonalizing the property?
The reason is to allow buyers to imagine their things in the home versus seeing your things in it. Religious items and personal photographs are a couple of home decorating items that are better packed away than on your home’s shelf.
Less is More So Clear the Clutter
Shelves, countertops, closets, drawers, garages and attics are all places that need to be cleared. Just leave the minimum that you can live with in these spaces so that buyers can visualize just how big these areas in your Oviedo real estate truly is.
When closets are jammed packed with clothes and shelves full of knick-knacks, it makes a property seem smaller, messier and generally less appealing.
Experts suggest 90 percent of a home seller’s items should be packed.
Make it Spic and Span by Scrubbing and Deodorizing
It is hard for anyone to see the true beauty of a property underneath dirt, grime, mildew and pet orders. Make sure Oviedo homes for sale shine from bottom to top by cleaning and deodorizing it before every showing.
Potential home buyers should be able to imagine themselves living in the home and if they are turned off by the sights and smells of a property, it is hard for them to take notice of a home’s true features.
A professional house cleaning might be in order and then bring in air freshers or bake cookies before a showing for added appeal.
Give Each Room a Purpose
When living in a home, many of us will turn a designated room into something totally different. For example, a dining room and its table may serve as a homework desk or an arts and crafts table. Eventually, the whole dining room area takes on a different theme which is exactly what a prospective buyer doesn’t want to see.
Give each room its purpose back. For an area like a family room that could serve multi-purposes choose one and set it up with a sole purpose. Place a television or a piano as a centerpiece.
