“The staging will be tailored to suit the spaces to be ‘dressed’. This can be anything from a makeover in a day to the full furnishing and dressing of an empty property.”

Staging is one of the best ways to avoid low offers

86% of UK estate agents agree that a staged home will sell up to 3 times faster than a non-staged home.

Properties styled by a professional stager can sell for up to 10-15% more than the competition.

The facts speak for themselves and it makes sense when selling your property to present it in the best way possible. Empty properties are not inspiring, buyers struggle to see how they could use the space or create the ambience they are seeking, and it’s often assumed that empty properties are a deal to be had. So it’s important to invest in this underused but invaluable service.
Top tips for staging and styling that sells:

  1. Whether you’re an investor or landlord, property developer or homeowner, skilled collaboration with a stylist will reap rewards.
  2. Furniture and accessories will be sourced and delivered ahead of the property staging. This usually takes 1-2 days but can depend on the size of the property and the styling requirements.
  3. Carefully consider your objectives and analyse the space and its requirements
    “There is never a second opportunity to make an excellent first impression on a buyer. Creating warm aspirational rooms that buyers can imagine themselves living in will secure you more offers and a quicker sale. Staging maximises your ROI.”
