Home Staging Tips for Fall

Staging your home is an important part of selling because it makes the home sell much faster. Fall is here now, so why not stage it in a fall theme? Here are a few tips to keep in mind during the staging process:

Keep It Simple

The key to fall decorations is to not overdo it. You don’t want your home to look cluttered because it makes it look smaller and unappealing to buyers. So when decorating your home, a little goes a long way. Add some color with a vase of fall foliage or a bowl of seasonal fruit. Keep the Halloween knick-knacks hidden and only bring out what is necessary to show that it is fall in your home.

Light A Fire

One of the best things about fall is being able to light a fire and make your home feel cozy. Take advantage of the season and light a fire to make potential buyers feel more at home.

Make Your Curb Appealing

Fall can be a hard thing to clean up after. The leaves are constantly falling and you are constantly raking, but don’t slack off. Keep those leaves off the ground. A potential buyer doesn’t want to drive up and see all the yard work they would have to do during the season. While it is a lot of clean up, you can make the most of it by planting fall colored flowers. Little things like that add a nice touch to your home.

Use Seasonal Scents

Smell is one of the first things buyers notice when walking into a house. Lighting fall scented candles will make your house smell good and make buyers feel more at home. You could also plug in a fall scented air freshener.

Turn On The Lights

The days start to get shorter in the fall so it’s important to turn on all the lights in the house and open all the blinds. It will make your home look bigger and more appealing.
