The industry secret to a successful real estate sale is home staging. Beyond the careful market research and hiring a good realtor that homeowners need to do in preparing their home to list, professional staging can be the hat trick that gets them the top dollar they’re asking for.
Your house could be spotless, have every new appliance and a manicured landscape, but when it comes to the small details of what will entice potential buyers into believing your home could be theirs, staging is what will go that extra mile to get those better offers. Whether it’s that personal family photo versus an eye-catching piece of art or your well-loved furniture compared to the luxurious dining set, master bedroom suite or living room accents of your buyer’s dreams; it’s a Stager’s job to make those dreams come true--even if just long enough to get that above-asking offer.

Going it alone? Start with the top three pro tips from Patti Houston, Owner of Flüff Designs:
1. A great rule of thumb is to hang art 60" from the floor. Lower hanging art actually makes ceilings appear higher.
2. Don't overdo accessorizing! Know when to stop. It's also important to use greenery in every project; nothing beats nature.
3. Never compete with a view!
