See what happens a when Seller<br />
doesn't set a Market-Sensitive Price?<br />
Fewer Buyers are Attracted, and even fewer offers received<br />
Marketing Time is prolonged, and the initial marketing momentum is<br />
completely lost<br />
If a Property does sell above True Market Value, it may not appraise,<br />
and the buyers may not be able to secure a loan<br />
<strong>The</strong> Property may eventually sell, but way below market value<br />

Staging<br />
Why it Matters?<br />
Today, if you want to sell your house quickly & for top dollar, a quick coat of paint<br />
and a few scattered pillows aren't enough. Today's property market is highly<br />
competitive and with so many new developments available on the market that offer<br />
all the latest upgrades, plus the increase in home renovations buyers expectations<br />
and standards are higher than ever.<br />
Ask yourself ...<br />
Is your home's first impression a great one?<br />
staging<br />
is one of the key elements to marketing your home. Properties that<br />
appear loved, well looked after and move in ready generate<br />
increased interest creating urgency in buyers and can potentially<br />
help you achieve the following:

Why<br />
Stage?<br />
# 1 ~ Stage to maximize your sale price.<br />
Staging your home can generate competitive buyer interest and drive the price up.<br />
# 2 ~ Stage to enhance online listing presence.<br />
Today the first place home buyers generally start looking is the Internet. Your homes<br />
photos are the internets curb appeal, the more appealing your photos are with styling<br />
and staging the more traffic will visit your listing.<br />
# 3 ~ Stage to obtain additional foot traffic.<br />
<strong>The</strong> interest generated on the internet will generally result in more viewings. This is<br />
when you can hook your buyers with your properties presentation.<br />
# 4 ~ Stage to reduce stress.<br />
While Selling your home your daily routine will be turned upside down temporarily.<br />
It can be unsettling rearranging your life to suit the taste of others. Showcase your<br />
home and get it sold quickly with staging so you can get on with your life.<br />
5 ~ Stage to stand out from your competitors.<br />
You need to think critically about how your home stacks up against your direct<br />
competition. You can’t assume your house is the most desirable or best value for<br />
money. If your home is styled and staged it will potentially have a greater chance of<br />
capturing the right buyer before they look elsewhere.<br />
Studies show only 10% of homebuyers can actually visualize the potential of a home.<br />
Your home might be beautiful and decorated to suit your tastes, but our homes are<br />
personal and how we live in them is not always how we should sell them.<br />
Remember your home is one of your biggest assets<br />
and every effort you make to showcase it will help you get you<br />
closer to the result you want !!!

When Selling<br />
Steps Key 5<br />
Your Home<br />
To Give Your Home the "WOW" factor.<br />
STEP 1 ~ De-cluttering & Depersonalizing<br />
De-cluttering is a vital step in the process of<br />
preparing your property for sale. Clutter can<br />
distract buyers from seeing the potential in<br />
your property and block key selling points.<br />
Clutter makes a house look smaller and if you<br />
have a small house, it makes it feel<br />
claustrophobic. It’s time to be tough, your<br />
moving anyway so it’s the perfect time to<br />
evaluate what you need to keep, store, donate<br />
or throw away. That way you are half packed<br />
for your next move!<br />
STEP 2 ~ Cleaning<br />
Don’t ever underestimate the power of a good scrub. clean every nook and cranny<br />
so that is sparkles. Make your floors shine and windows gleam, clean counters &<br />
that grimy oven and scrub that grout until it’s like new. Cleaning can magically<br />
transform any space and is the cheapest facelift you can give your home.<br />
STEP 3 ~ Repairs<br />
No one really wants to spend money on their home they are getting to put on the<br />
market, but completing necessary repairs can be crucial if you want to sell the<br />
house quickly and for the price you want. Walk through your home as if you were a<br />
Buyer, scrutinise everything.<br />
STEP 4 ~ Neutralizing<br />
A neutral base when staging your home offers potential buyers a blank canvas on<br />
which they can add their own personality. “neutral” doesn’t necessarily mean<br />
white. Using subtle color can actually enhance a basic room and add<br />
new warmth and style.<br />
STEP 5 ~ Staging<br />
<strong>The</strong> goal of staging is to make the property speak to potential buyers and make them<br />
fall in love. This is where you can create the ‘WOW’ factor.<br />
<strong>The</strong> objective is to trigger an emotional attachment and this can be done through<br />
selling a story of how their life could be in your Home.

with a Buyers viewpoint.<br />
It's important that<br />
your Home makes the<br />
Best possible<br />
impression every time<br />
on perspective<br />
Buyers<br />
Exterior<br />
Clutter (Perfect time to remove<br />
