Home staging: A complete guide for sellers
Get your property looking its beautiful best

AI summary
Home staging can increase your property's sale price by up to 15% by styling it to highlight its best features. Sellers can either hire a professional stager or take a DIY approach.
Professionals provide and arrange all furniture and decor, with costs typically ranging from $1,500 to $5,000 for a 4-5 week period. For a DIY sale, focus on:
- Decluttering and depersonalising
- Finishing small maintenance jobs
- Styling outdoor areas to improve street appeal.
