Staging Guide
Start by prepping the home with care. Declutter and clean thoroughly, making sure countertops are clear, beds are neatly made, and personal items are tucked away. Open blinds to let in natural light, and don’t forget the outside freshly cut grass and a clean porch go a long way in photos.
Declutter Every Room
Clear off countertops, tables, and open surfaces. Less is more tidy spaces feel bigger and more inviting in photos.
Hide Personal Items
Remove family photos, pet bowls, toys, and anything overly personal. Neutral, clean spaces help buyers picture themselves in the home.
Clean Thoroughly
Floors, windows, mirrors, and surfaces should all sparkle. A clean home photographs much better and gives a polished impression.
Stage with Purpose
Simple touches like a neatly made bed, fresh towels, or a bowl of fruit can help a space feel warm and styled without clutter.
Open Blinds & Curtains
Natural light makes a big difference. Open all window treatments to let in light and create a bright, airy feel.
Don’t Forget the Outside
Mow the lawn, move cars from the driveway, and sweep porches or patios. Curb appeal counts, especially for those first exterior shots.
