Staging

Enhancing your home for sale in a number of small ways, including de-cluttering, strategic placement of furniture, specialized lighting, neutral décor, de-personalization (removing family pictures and personal items) and sometimes even the hiring of a professional stager. These home-stagers often bring in special furniture and lights to improve the way a home "shows", using these tools to make a room look larger or brighter and more appealing to a buyer or to demonstrate the best use of a particular space in the home or grounds. Staging becomes more and more popular as the housing market cools and sellers try and set their homes apart.
