Fremont homes

Since I have already covered the First impressions, curb appeal, paint and landscaping in my other blog called Staging – First Impressions, I will cover the next step or series in this blog.

The doorway is the first point of entry.

Does the door need to be repainted? Does it need new Hardware? Do the house numbers need to be replaced? How about the light or lamp posts?

When considering a home for purchase, the buyer visualizes how he would feel if he lived there.

Keep the wall colors neutral. Shades of white, off-white and light pastels are good choices for the interior.

Make sure there are no odors from pets, cooking or cigarettes. Lemon oil, a dish of vanilla, baking soda in the refrigerator can make a difference in minimizing odors.

Furniture should not be bulky so the rooms look bigger. Adding a mirror on the wall can help in creating a bigger and brighter look. Take down all personal pictures and do not have too much unusual artwork on the walls.

The kitchen is the most important room in the house.

The appliances should be clean and in good working order. The cabinets should be polished. The sink should not be chipped or stained and the tile grout should be clean.

Small details make a big statement about the condition of your property. A house that shows poorly as a result of peeling paint, smell of mildew, may create the overall impression with the buyer that the property has not been cared for. Losing a qualified buyer because of this could cost you valuable time and money.

I will continue with more staging tips in my next blog titled Staging – Bedrooms and Bath.
