Selling a home while living in it requires a strategic approach.
Option 1: The DIY Staging Consultation For the Empowered Do-It-Yourself Homeowner
You have the energy and time to do the physical work, and we have the expert, customized blueprint to guide you. This option is designed for homeowners who want professional direction and a maximum return on investment while saving money by doing the implementation themselves.
What to Expect During Your 90-Minute Consultation:
Our consultation is a thorough, objective property assessment with one single goal: creating a powerful blueprint for maximizing your home's appeal to potential buyers.
- 90-Minute Walk-Through: We conduct a systematic, room-by-room review, analyzing layout, lighting, flow, color, and necessary repairs from a buyer's perspective.
- Prioritized Action Plan: We identify exactly where you should focus your time and effort—covering decluttering edits, cleaning focus areas, necessary repairs, and optimal furniture arrangements. We prioritize the tasks that will deliver the biggest visual impact.
- Expert Insight: We provide objective feedback and creative solutions for problem areas you may have overlooked, turning potential flaws into selling points.
Comprehensive Written Report:
Following the consultation, you will receive a comprehensive, written report that acts as your practical, step-by-step guide to prepare the home for sale. This report includes:
- Room-by-Room Checklist: A prioritized list of actions tailored specifically to your property.
- Decluttering & Packing Recommendations: Clear instructions on what items to remove or store to create maximum spaciousness.
- Suggested Layouts: Drawings or descriptions of optimal furniture placement for key areas.
- Staging & Styling Tips: Guidance on utilizing your existing décor to create an aspirational look.
With the Fresh Start Home Staging Report in hand, you can confidently implement the staging process yourself, leading to faster sales and higher offers.
