Cleansing, repairing, refinishing, or replacing are the most crucial parts of the home staging multi step process. The less items a potential Buyer can see, hear, and smell, the more likely you will sell for more money, and faster!
Image 1 - I regrouted the bathroom floor and shower. We took an older bathroom and made it look fresh and more desirable.
Image 2 - I took old brown floor registers, and painted them a modern colour that matched the new flooring.
Image 3 - I cleaned every window inside and out to make older windows look fresh and rejuvinated.
Image 4 - We added some new baseboards and caulking to add value to the investment.
Images 5 and 6 - I took some older windows and with a vacuum, toothbrush, and some cleaner, I made the windows look 10 years newer.
Images 7 and 8 - It's always a good idea to make any items that are included in the offer look newer as well.
Dated and dingy
White washing, 50% water & 50% paint
...not dated and dingy anymore!
Grout was old and cracking
...not anymore!
I can't list a house looking like this.
This was a challenging before...
...but a very important stage for more offers, and more money!
Staging includes repairing and refinishing...
...so I had to remove the cupboard doors...
...and of course this added more value!
Before...
...still before...
...and of course after!
Staging always includes outdoors. Before...
..after!
