How to Stage Your Home in the Winter
Home staging is a hugely important part of getting a home sold. The way a home is set up and presented during home visits can either convince a potential buyer to invest in the home or move on. Wharton Law has some tips to help you stage your home this winter. Below you will find some helpful cold weather home staging tips.
Keep Your Home Warm
Since the winter months can be quite cold, keeping your home warm and cozy will make a positive impression on potential buyers. If your home is warm, buyers will feel more comfortable and welcome in the space. They are likely to stay longer and really look around at the house if they are comfortable and warm in the interior. Turn the heater on for home visits, light a fire in the fireplace and offer warm treats to keep things warm and inviting.
Create Cozy Spaces
A general rule for home staging in any season is to remove clutter from every room in the home. Remove overly bulky furniture and things that make your countertops look crowded and messy. However, during the cold season you should also focus on creating cozy spaces with small details. For example, adding a warm, fluffy quilt to the foot of a bed can give a bedroom and cozy feeling. Adding a warm throw to an armchair in the living room can also make the space more comfortable and inviting. The same is true for outdoor spaces. If you have an outdoor fireplace, light a fire and organize your patio furniture around it for a cozy outdoor experience.
Keep an Eye on the Outdoors
Since the winter weather can be quite harsh you may need to pay extra attention to your outdoor spaces this season. Trim your trees and continue to take care of your lawn. Even though flower beds tend to die out in the winter, you can still decorate with flowers. Use potted plants and winter flowers to add life to your porch. Keep your walkways free of debris and remove any ice or snow that can cause dangerous conditions for home visits.
