Stagingg Your home For the Holiday
A lot of sellers want to remove their home off the market during the holiday season. But, what if you leave it on? How do you stage it to sell while still enjoying the holiday's?
Be careful on placement of Christmas trees. You do not want to block the windows natural light coming into a room. Natural light and windows can make any space feel and look larger than it is. By covering it up you run the perception that the room is dark, gloomy and small. Also, try to position Christmas decorations so that the room still looks like it is spacious. Consider removing furniture and storing it in the garge or attic while you have holiday decorations up. I have been in a lot of homes where they just shuffle the couch or chair around the room to make space to put up the Christmas tree. You are taking away from the space in the room. It makes people feel like the room is smaller than it may actually be.
Bake cookies this time of the year. I wrote a blog a couple of months ago that talked about smells and odors in a home. Certain smells and odors can be deal breakers and others can help get the other senses invloved in the buying process. The smell of fresh baked cookies or pies is always a great smell to have. This time of the year it will not only help but will allow the buyer to envison when they were younger and helping their parents or grandparents cook or spending holiday's as a family.
Decorate your home in taste. Buyers are expecting to see lights on houses, Christmas trees up, wreaths hanging on doors and holiday decorations scattered throughout the house. They do not want to drive up to see Chevy Chase house on Christmas vacation though. So, just do not overdo it.
You can decorate and keep the holiday traditions alive and well and still have your home marketable. Just be sure it is in moderation. And who knows the best Chrsitmas present you may receive is an offer on your home.
