Moving Hacks: Home Staging

Sometimes the hardest part of moving can be selling your home. This is especially true in situations where you discover you have to move on short notice. When your employer relocates, you get transferred, or other life demands require you to sell your home and move quickly, you need all of the help you can get.

Throughout this website, you’re going to find plenty of advice on how to move quickly. Here are some moving hacks for busy Moms (they work for busy Dads too!), some information on moving with pets, and how to save time by using DIY booking to schedule your move.

But now we’d like to take a minute to talk about selling your home quickly. Our single favorite tip: work with a home staging company. You’re in a situation where all of your time and energy is being consumed with coordinating a household move. There’s a lot involved. You need to find a place to live, you may need to find a job, the kids need to be enrolled in school, you need to find new health care providers for every member of your family – including your pets! –  it’s a ton of work. Making your home look as good as humanly possible to entice potential buyers is something you’d like to do, but there’s just no time.

When a home is professionally staged, it sells faster, and it often sells for more money, than comparable homes where the homeowner does the best they can. Home staging is about creating an appealing aesthetic that makes a potential home buyer feel like they belong in the home; ideally, they should be both comforted and excited by what they see. When everything works perfectly, you wind up getting more money for your home in less time.
