Are you getting ready for you to stage a $1,299,000 5-bedroom 4-baths Colonial similar to 895 Falls Bridge Ln in 22066 in Great Falls? One reason sellers like to stage their home is because staged residences usually sell for more money. Here's a few ideas of what you can do when you don't even know where to start?
When it comes to decor for real estate sellers, less is definitely more.
I can assist with a yard sale or even arrange for a pick-up of unwanted items. Donated items can garner a tax credit.
Remove anything that requires an opinion. What does that mean? Anything that people either love or hate, probably should be crated and prepared for moving day.
Home Buyers not only want to see your Colonial, but they want to see what you see from your house. That's why the right window treatment is vital.
If your windows are hiding behind cumbersome drapes and other coverings, now's the time to take them down. Leave your windows bare, or hang sheer linen curtains.

It's time to sell. That means it's time to erase your personal touches.
Ponder these ideas:
- Replace dark furnishings with glass or metal furnishings. Dark antique woods are beautiful but glass is see-through and creates a more open feel.
- An empty home is not as appealing as a sparsely decorated home.
- Switch plates, cabinet handles, and small pieces of housing hardware are an inexpensive and effective update.
- Leave the corners of a room open. We do this because empty corners extend a shopper’s view of a room. This makes the space feel larger.
