By |2021-10-20T15:51:03+10:00August 27th, 2021|Home Staging Tips|

Art is an absolute MUST when it comes to home styling. It creates a focal point, which makes it a key decoration that ties the room together. A well-chosen artwork adds character to the home and can even influence our mood! (link) When it comes to outfitting your walls, a little repetition can be a good thing. A pair of matching (or identical) prints creates a pleasing sense of symmetry and is a perfect way to clearly identify the zones in your home. That’s why we’ve chosen this article to showcase our favourite collection of two-piece wall arts that [...]

Same Floorplans, Different Styles

By |2021-08-18T16:46:24+10:00August 18th, 2021|Home Staging Tips|

As Home Stagers, we see a lot of homes with similar layouts, but we never got to style two houses in different suburbs that had almost identical floorplans. Until last week. You may think ‘Oh, nice! That’s easy, just copy and paste!’, but there’s more to it than ctrl+C and ctrl+V. There’s a lot of things we need to take into account before we choose the most suitable style. In this case, the most prominent influencing factor was the architecture of the homes. 39 Taffetta Drive Mount Cotton • “older” home that has [...]

By |2021-08-12T12:12:24+10:00August 10th, 2021|Behind The Scenes, Business of Staging|

Oh my goodness, I can’t believe it has been 12 months since I started working at Foxy! Time flies when you’re having fun! Or when you’re in a lockdown unable to do much else… or in my case… both! Just a heads up, this article is not going to be one of the professional, well-structured blog posts you are used to. Oh no, quite the opposite. It’s 4.15pm as I’m typing this and I’m leaning all the way back in my chair, left foot on the desk, left arm elbow-deep in a bag of sweet potato chips, occasionally wiping [...]

As professional Home-Stagers, we’ve been observing the Brisbane housing prices for the last four years. When the market started rising, we’ve seen lots of anecdotal evidence pointing [...]

How to Appeal to All 5 Senses When Selling Real Estate

By |2021-08-02T13:43:42+10:00July 31st, 2021|Home Staging Tips|

Humans have been using their five senses to investigate the world around them since… well, since the dawn of humanity. But the senses do way more than just identify the things around us. Sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing play an integral role in our emotional processing, learning and even buying behaviour. Whether we consciously realise it or not, we all make our purchases emotionally and justify them rationally. The bigger the purchase, the more we let our emotions guide us. --- Selling real estate is predominantly reliant on building an emotional connection and only marginally on the facts [...]
