Regardless of the size or features, the well-staged house will highlight the potential of each room. This helps the prospective buyer visualize making it into his/her home. The lighting, composition and attention to detail are more demanding in a staged home but well worth the extra effort in attracting great buyers with strong purchase offers.

For that reason, we recommend before doing any photography, make sure the home is as clean and orderly as possible. Remove personal items and any clutter. Decorate but in moderation. A visually “busy” room can quickly work against you. Even if your furniture looks great, don’t be quick to fill rooms up. This can make the rooms look smaller with more visual distractions. If you’re selling the house, keep the focus on your house. Emphasize the space, not the contents. Those are the photos that will help make the quickest, most profitable sale possible.
