New Construction and Home Staging is Alive and Well in Tulsa Oklahoma!
Tulsa is having a great home selling season in 2010. Lots of homes have been sold and new construction is alive and kicking. Tulsa is a great city and a beautiful place to live.
I have posted a few before and after photos of a new construction that was staged by us - Staging Tulsa home stager in Tulsa. The 'before' photos are last. The elctricity was not on yet.
What a difference a home staging makes!
Home Staging TIPS for your 'For Sale by Owner' Home
There is lots of work to be done if you are selling your home on your own. The old 'sign in in the front yard' is just the beginning! Here are a few reminders.
#1. Show a SQUEAKY CLEAN house - this includes cabinets and closets.
#2. Get ready to LIVE squeaky clean every day your house is on the market! Everyday, Remember to make your bed, take a small sack and go through the house and collect clutter (just takes 3 minutes), empty kitchen sink, etc. Buyers love well kept homes!
#3. Stage your home to sell. Refresh your home with new sofa pillows, new fireplace screen, new neutral comforter sets and fresh towels. New furnishings will give a house a 'well cared for' feeling. Is there too much furniture in the house? This will it make seem cramped and look small. Are your window treatments open? Bright and airy sells homes.
Are your furnishings dated? pack them away, they are presenting your house to buyers with an 'I'm an old house' look - this is a very negative effect. Just take them out! This will also give your home the 'less crowded' feel that you want.
#4. The outside of your home is as important as the inside. EVEN in the winter months. Don't skimp, use a great mulch and use plenty of it. Keep your front entrance swept - every day. This area is the buyer's first impression - make it a great one.
#5. Market you home well! Home Staging IS marketing.
These home staging tips from Staging Tulsa will get you off to a great beginning with your For Sale by Owner home...
oh, and still put the sign in the front yard ;)
Good Luck!

Home Stagers Help Dreaming & Imagination Come to Life
Home Stagers Help Dreaming & Imagination Come to Life
This Rental Property has been Transformed and is Now Ready to Sell!
Everything in this cute cottage style home was cleaned, painted AND repaired. Just this step alone, will give home sellers a great launch into the real estate market with an edge on their competition. BUT, some smart sellers will take selling to the next step which is: HOME STAGING.
Home staging brings to the table an entirely different dimension in the 'selling' process. Once a home has been staged, dreaming & imagination come to life... it is called suggestive selling or marketing.
Smart home sellers realize that the sale of their property begins on the Internet. Either on the PC at lunch break or iPhone while waiting at the doctors office, this is the NEW WAY TO SHOP FOR HOMES TODAY.
An empty house offers nothing to the buyer except the ability to see ALL of the home's flaws. A staged home allows buyers vision and imagination. Your great staged INTERNET PHOTOS will bring buyers to your property and once inside, buyers begin to dream.
(And remember: the first 30 days your home is on the market, is the very best time to get it sold!)
