Staging plays a huge role in selling homes. Some of my go-to staging tips: enlarge room sizes by keeping one big item as a focal point and blend in the rest, add greenery when possible and incorporate bolder colors with decorative items.

Spruce up a property that’s showing its age by changing out electrical sockets, switches and cover plates with new white ones. This simple, affordable change leaves the impression the home has been well maintained and updated.

The front porch, door and landscaping are crucial things to stage and tidy up. While buyers are waiting to get in, they are looking around and noticing how things are cared for. First impressions are important.

Declutter as much as possible. Rooms tend to look bigger and more spacious with fewer items. This includes taking down pictures if there are too many frames.
