How to keep your home Show ready

Most people understand the importance of showing their home to its best advantage when it’s up for sale. This means that a real estate professional may show clients around a prospective home that has undergone proper staging techniques and consequently looks and smells great.

Of course, the reality of the situation is that the current homeowners are still living in the home. That means that the home will occasionally be cluttered, appear to actually be lived-in, and may not always smell the best – particularly if animals are in residence. Such things can make an unfavorable impression on buyers, but fortunately there are a few handy techniques that can make staging your home look as if it has just been cleaned by a professional.

Don't Block the room off with furniture.


You want the room to flow and not have obstacles in the way of movement or the line of sight. Here you can see that the chairs were in the way of the fireplace's line of sight. Not only does the room flow better but it also gives the illusion that it is bigger. Again it is very important to clear surfaces from any items you have on display to give the room a clean look and let the potential buyer imagine their personal items in the room.

Staging your Oakville home to sell.


The first thing people see when they walk into a home is the foyer or hallway. Making sure this area is free of clutter and is as open as possible to allow for free movement give the people an easy feeling when they come into your home is very important. As you can see in these before and after we accomplished just that. Removing the large area rug and replacing it with a smaller one at the door entrance. Removing clutter on the floor and at the front door including shoes and coats and keep surfaces clear of any unnecessary items. As you can see here we reomoved a couple plants that were on the hutch at the front door making the area much more tidy.
