Whether you are short selling or just selling, you will do better if you stage the home. If you are short selling, the better price you bring in, the happier your lender and the sooner you can move on.

Home staging is about illusions. It’s like Houdini, but with selling a house. It’s beyond decorating and cleaning. It’s about perfecting the art of creating moods. Moods that say ‘Buy My House’

Staging makes your house look bigger, brighter, cleaner, warmer, more loving and, best of all, it makes home buyers want to buy it.

Contrary to what you might think, it’s about more than preparing the house for sale. Staging is what you do after you’ve cleaned, decluttered, painted, made minor repairs; it’s all about dressing the house for sale.
