Ever wanted to own a cabin in the woods? Well, this cute little cottage set atop a hill in Redmond, Washington (near the famous Microsoft campus) will make you feel like you've left the city far behind. With a huge deck off the living room to enjoy the fall colors and the terratorial view this home exudes calm and tranquility.

Show and Sell an Inviting Living Space

Here are photos of a starter home we recently staged in Shoreline, Washington. The living room had old carpeting which the sellers removed to reveal beautful and valuable hardwood floors.

Warming this space up with an area rug, soft fabrics and well placed lighting really shows potential buyers how they can enjoy this home. Who wouldn't rather walk into a home that looks cozy and warm instead of cold, dark and empty?

Color: A Powerful Real Estate Marketing Tool

Color makes all the difference when showing a home for sale. Color can draw a person into a space and create a warm, welcoming feeling. The color palate should be consistent throughout the house for good flow. As professional stagers, it is our goal to keep the focus on the home, not the "stuff" we have brought in to enhance the space.

In this example, warm paint colors highlight the white trim in the dining room and accent the media wall in the family room. The colors used to stage this home are warm yellow/gold, cream, black, cranberry and sage green. As you can see, these colors photograph wonderfully and the paint just adds the finishing touch of sophistication often lacking in new construction.

These paint colors were chosen for the builder by Diana Young of SISTERS Interior Redesign.

Staging Sells a Lifestyle

Staging is more than providing furniture for a vacant property. When staging is done well, it sells a lifestyle that today's buyers are looking for. Professional stagers know how to maximize the space to create warm and inviting spaces that say "Welcome Home!" to all who enter.

Here are two Edmonds condos, both in the same building, both for sale in a large resort style condo community with sweeping views of Puget Sound. As a potential buyer, which condo would you decide to view in person?

Condo One:

Condo Two:

As you might have figured out, the same condo is in both photos! The first photo is "before" staging and the second photo is "after" staging.

When selling, don't just sell the house, sell potential buyers on the lifestyle that can be theirs when they purchase your home.
