Home staging: A complete guide for sellers
Get your property looking its beautiful best
AI summary
Home staging can significantly boost your property's sale price, potentially by 10-15%. It involves styling your home to highlight its best features for potential buyers.
You can hire a professional stager, which typically costs $1,500-$5,000 for a 4-5 week furniture hire and styling package. Alternatively, you can DIY by:
- Decluttering and depersonalising your space
- Finishing any outstanding maintenance jobs
- Styling rooms and outdoor areas to create inviting "moments"
This helps buyers envision themselves living in the property.
