At Georgia Interior Solutions, LLC, Atlanta's premier home staging company, we take on projects of all sizes. Whether the home is large or small, it makes no difference. Each home we stage will get exactly what it needs to help sell it quickly. 

In the case of this home, I had made the recommendation to change out the furniture. Costly? Well... in comparison to other home stagings we've done in Atlanta, the cost was higher in light of the fact that we took everything out. However, once the existing furniture was out, it was no different than staging a vacant. And oh, by the way, they had interviewed two additional stagers. Our price, combined with a clear and concise contract, made us the perfect choice for staging.

Here's how the room looked before home staging:

Now here's how the room looked after staging:

Did it make a difference? In more ways than one. The new room arrangement showcases how large the room actually is. In the before picture, you can see that the location of the sofa made the room appear much smaller. In addition, the TV was actually a focal point. A common mistake by sellers is that they overlook the features that their home has to offer. A TV is NOT a feature. The fireplace is. 

The results: After 10 months on the market without a single offer, the homeowners, within 2 weeks of staging, received two competitive offers. The house is now sold.

Is Your Home Capturing the Buyers Off the Internet?

Is Your Home Capturing the Buyers Off the Internet?

In the case of this home (see before picture below), we have a completely vanilla kitchen (minus my bin of accessories, of course). The cabinets are white. The appliances are white and we have a light-color countertop. If left empty, it's likely the buyers, when searching the Internet, would likely find nothing appealing about this kitchen.  

If you're selling your home, your objective should be to make the "short list." The short list is comprised of the homes they've viewed off the Internet that are "worthy" of seeing first-hand.

Once a buyer settles on a location, price and size of the home (for example, quantity of bedrooms), they will next look for those that are most appealing. Herein lies the greatest opportunity for a seller. If your home is vacant, dress it up. Trust me. As a professional home stager in Atlanta, I've had the good fortune in having helped hundreds throughout metro Atlanta to help sell their home quickly.

Here's an example of a home we staged last week in Roswell, Georgia:

Staging your home, whether your hire a professional or do it yourself, will absolutely make a difference as it relates to capturing the buyers off the Internet.

How to Dress-up Your Master Bathroom


One of the easiest changes a homeowner can make, when preparing their home for the market, is to "dress-up" their master bathroom.

What's needed?

As you'll see, a few accessories will do the trick.

  • Begin the process by removing everything out of your master bathroom
  • Next, start with the towels. A new fresh set of towels placed on the counter or on the side of the bathtub allows the buyer to envision actually bathing.
  • Use matching accessories to bring in consistency. In the case of this home, which was professionally home staged by Home Staging Atlanta, Georgia Interior Solutions, we used a consistent color in the soap dispenser as well as the containers that would house Q-tips, cotton balls, etc.  Using multiple colors breaks up the space. In other words, your eye will stop at each new color.

Here are two after pictures of a home we staged in Roswell, Georgia:

Tips on How to Showcase The Features of Your Home - Master Bedroom

Tips on How to Showcase The Features of Your Home - Master Bedroom

In the first of the series, I shared tips on how to showcase your dining room. In this post, I'll be sharing insight into how to prepare your master bedroom. From a buyers' perspective, the master bedroom is a key room within the home. Therefore, it's critically important that the room look its' absolute best. 

If the home is occupied (meaning you're living in the home when it is on the market):

  • Ensure the room is picked-up daily. Each morning, make sure clothes are put away and the bed is made.
  • Keep items on the dresser and night stands to a minimum. A good rule of thumb is that it's not a decorative item, then put it away.
  • Stay consistent. In other words, keep the same style throughout the room as this will help to visually make the room appear larger.

If the home is vacant:

  • Brining in furniture (as was the case in this home pictured below) will make the room visually appealing.
  • Use nice bedding. Treat the mattress as though it were a big blank canvas. Warm and inviting bedding allows the buyer to envision sleeping in this room.
  • Bring in a touch of greenery. 
Whether vacant or occupied, find the features in the room and draw the buyers eye to those features thru proper scale and placement of furniture.

189 Pictures Later...

189 Pictures Later.... and I ended up getting a few close-ups that I like.  It happens.  I've learned, over the years, that while the shot may look good in the view finder, it may not be exactly what you were hoping after you've uploaded them. The only investment in taking this many photos (of course, this is after the purchase of the camera) is your time. 

Here are three, out of the 189, from a home we staged this past Tuesday.  The home is located in Roswell, Georgia and was professionally staged by Home Staging Atlanta - Georgia Interior Solutions.
