           Homeowner says "How’s that for fast work …the staging definitely made this possible!"

The other day I received an email from one of my homeowner clients that her staged home has sold in 28 days and she added, "How’s that for fast work … the staging definitely made this possible!"

This lovely Beaverton Oregon home sits at the top of a hilltop neighborhood with beautiful views, but it had a challenge at the entry.  Usually you expect to see 1 or 2 stairways near the entry, but this home had 4 visible stairways!  The smart seller knew that proper home staging would show buyers the function of each area and answer the question "how can I best use this space?"  When the sellers moved out, they left behind their dining set and family room sofa, but needed furniture, accessories and art throughout the rest of the home's main impact areas to create an inviting and warm environment.

Our Portland home staging company loves working with challenging spaces!  Here are some Before & After photos to show what we did ...

Here was one view from the entry ... 

Now, buyers can see this first space as a comfortable seating area.  

The stairs just beyond lead to the dining room where we added accessories to the dining set they left behind:

The empty family room didn't give buyers ideas on how to make the space work, so we showed them:

In the kitchen it's important to show another eating area:

Finally, this main floor room was being used as a storage area, so we staged it simply as an office: 

If you show buyers the possibilities, and stage each area to highlight the home's features, be ready for a quicker sale!  Contact your local home staging professional to help prepare your home for the market -- you'll be happy with your Return On Investment.                ~   Photos by Room Solutions Staging   ~

Stagers & Realtors, take notice .... some banks are paying for staging foreclosed homes!  Here's an example of one that we staged recently.  It's a beautiful new home in Beaverton Oregon that has been on the market for THREE YEARS (never lived in).  The smart and savvy bank owner recently bought several foreclosed homes in this upscale neighborhood and is investing in preparing them to SELL.  So, what else did they do?  Here are some Before & After photos to show you the changes...

UPDATE:  After being on the market for 2+YEARS without a sale, this home was staged and SOLD in just one month!

In the Office, the bank had the carpeting replaced, and had this room repainted too (Devine Roast)

The Master Bath was repainted as well (Devine Oat Straw) & the Master Bedroom was staged to sell ...

The Dining Room and the Kitchen were staged to appeal to the target buyer ...

You may want to pursue this type of business in your area.  Don't give up .... just get busy and go after whatever business is out there.  These are challenging times and smart banks are starting to "get it."  Hang in there ... and Good Luck!
