TIP #6 LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION SET THE STAGE

Staging your home can help potential buyers envision themselves living in the space. This can include rearranging furniture, adding decorative touches, repainting, and ensuring rooms are well-lit and inviting. Whether you notice it or not, lighting is everything in a house. People want to feel like a home is light and airy, not heavy and dark. So focusing on light is huge. Here are a few ways you can maximize light in a room.

• Make sure there are multiple light sources so that you don’t just rely on light from one place. Additional sources can be ceiling lights, desk lights, and floor lamps.

• Remove heavy curtains and window coverings. Odds are the new homeowner would remove or replace these, so get rid of them and let the light in.

• Ensure that all the light bulbs are working in the home and that you have the right bulbs and lamp shades to let off the right kind of warmth and natural light.

• Keep windows clean. Dirt can block light, so a simple cleaning can help a lot!

Not only are these important tips for showing your home to potential buyers but they also will make a significant impact when capturing your home in photography for online presentation.
