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 [...]

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.

This entails presenting the home in the best possible way to attract the highest number of prospective buyers. Some of the homes we get to stage are already in a picture-perfect condition. All we need to do is add a few finishing touches, bring in some knick-knacks and artwork and it’s good to go! Other homes need a bit more TLC. In these instances, we harness the power of optical illusions. “There is no truth. There is [...]

If you are about to put your house on the market, don’t underestimate the power of a beautifully styled kids’ bedroom.

By |2021-07-05T08:30:19+10:00June 9th, 2021|Home Staging Tips|
