Homebuying is an emotional process, and getting people to feel attached to your home helps bring you more money on the sale. That first impression on prospective buyers should be a lasting and positive one. “Homebuyers will be in a home for three to four minutes. You want to make those moments memorable and profitable.”You don’t need to be a decorator to stage a home. Check out leading department and home furnishing stores to see what colors they are using and copy them. Bringing in trendy colors immediately modernizes any home, as will fresh linens in the bedroom and bathroom. The goal is making every incoming homebuyer feel like they immediately belong. Advised by the author of Peggy’s Corner, The Art of Staging, Peggy Selinger-Eaton offers these additional ideas:

Getting a house ready to sell quickly.
You want buyers to picture themselves in it.
The beauty lies not only in the art.
Make your home look like a million bucks.
