Staging &  Interior Design

Want to add  more value to your home when selling? or gain more customers in your holiday home business? Staging your property will increase your profits and generate more revenue.

While home staging is focused on making the house more attractive to prospective buyers, Interior design is focused on serving a homeowners specific needs or those of its inhabitants. Home staging and Interior design both involve a professional selecting new pieces and styling elements for the space, and implementing them in a pleasing manner. Generally, home staging is intended to attract overall buyers into purchasing the property, whereas interior design is intended to adorn a house to make it comfortable for its inhabitants or guests.

Home staging neutralizes and depersonalizes living spaces and lays out the property in order to attract buyers, whereas interior design customizes a house or apartment in order to fit into their lifestyle. In home staging, the objective is to depersonalize a space, to furnish and decorate it in order to emphasize its best features, and to attract as broad an audience as possible in order to sell a house. The way to do that is by furnishing and decorating neutrally so the design will attract a broad spectrum of prospective buyers.

Interior decorating makes someone feel like home, whereas home staging makes the prospective buyer feel as though the unit they are looking at might become their future home. At the end of a home stagers process, a home for sale needs to feature all of the modern market-relevant decorating trends, which will draw in more potential buyers and make a house sell faster.   

Simply put, a home stager works fast to get the property ready to sell, while an interior designer takes the time necessary to make a house feel like a home. An interior designer works towards a homeowners ultimate decision, but in home stagers case, the call is made by the professional stager. Having studied the market trends and knowing what is needed to make the house more attractive, a home stager customizes a design that meets underlying market needs. 

While home staging draws from some basic principles of interior design, like using symmetry, repetition, and proportion to design your rooms, its singular goal is to fire up the imaginations of prospective homebuyers as your house is listed. Staging provides a cleaner sort of palette - one free of clutter, personal photos, and other items that may deter a buyer or make it difficult for them to envision living in your home. In contrast, an interior designer integrates specific functional and lifestyle needs in order to create a comfortable, aesthetically pleasing living space that meets a homeowners unique needs.

 Staging your house before selling is one of the best investments you can make in making sure that you receive a prompt offer and achieve the highest sales value.
