Home Staging / Styling for Selling

If you have answered YES to any of the above questions - then take a look below at the variety of services offered by Innerspace to help you get the right look and feel for your home when selling.       What is Home Staging and why do you need it?   Home staging is the process of making your home as desirable to potential buyers as possible, in order to secure a sale quickly and for the best possible price.   A Home Stager will be able to assess your home given the current market and location, and give expert advice on what changes/updates will make the most difference for the buyer. Staging focusses on the aesthetics of the home rather than any structural changes, and can help you if you are unsure of what changes would be most beneficial.   Staging will help your potential buyers to be able to imagine themselves living in your home. Innerspace will work with you to create a home that they will aspire to - making it stand out from the competition.    The process is focussed on utilising what you already have as much as possible to its maximum potential, creating maximum profitability for you. It is focussed on creating the right look and feel for as little outlay as possible.   Staging your home can give your property the edge in the marketplace - creating the WOW factor that buyers will remember long after they have viewed it.   Why give anyone a chance to offer less than your homes true value?  It can be difficult to be objective about your own house, as you may have been there for a while. An unbiased professional eye can help to identify what changes should be made to achieve the look and feel your buyer will be looking for, for the minimum amount of work, hassle and money possible.   Innerspace will work within your budget, it needn't be expensive and simple things such as changing furniture around, decluttering or adding in accessories and artwork can make all the difference.    Please feel free to contact me to discuss in more detail.       Chrissy writes a regular article about Home Staging in 10 papers across the Cheshire / Greater Manchester area - examples of the articles are shown below: Example 1 Example 2    Qualifications - Chrissy has been trained by Ann Maurice - TVs House Doctor - and is currently one of 20 consultants on her UK House Doctor Network.

Home Staging Services Available  Verbal Consultation - A 2 hour consultation in your home to view all the rooms (inside and out) and talk through with you in detail any changes that could be made to achieve the best possible price. This advice will include decoration, colour, de-cluttering, DIY and tips on the best ways to show your home to buyers. Written Report - Detailed "Action Plan" sent to your home following a Verbal Consultation. It will summarise the consultation and give detailed recommendations for how to stage your home. Advice will be given on items such as colour schemes, furniture placement, accessorising and also a budget breakdown. It will also contain a guide to presenting your property to buyers during viewings. (If necessary, a contact list for suppliers and tradesmen can be supplied that you may find useful in completing some of the work that may be required). This can be sent either via email or as a hard copy version - whatever your preference. Hands on Presentation - Time spent in your home after any necessary redecoration or repairs have been completed to ensure that the property is presented successfully following my guidelines. I can provide finishing touches and help with furniture placement and accessorising for maximum impact. This service helps to complete the overall look and ties everything together. Product Sourcing - Purchasing the required accessories as specified in the action plan on your behalf. Innerspace has links with local furniture rental companies, and access to cost effective furniture/accessories for purchase - just call to find out more. Property Photography and Staging - If you are selling your home online rather than with an agent, it is advisable to ensure your photographs look professional and that they will attract the buyers. This service takes about 1/2 a day, starting with deciding with you what rooms to photograph for maximum effect, ensuring that these rooms look their best (hands on help provided for any changes to furniture placement, accessories etc... to make the room look great), and then, using a digital camera with a wide angled lens, pictures can be taken and sent to you for use in your property advertising. Assisted Viewings - If you are too busy, or do not want to conduct viewings yourself, Innerspace will do this for you. This is especially applicable if you are selling your home online rather than through an agent. You can be confident that each viewing will be conducted professionally and all information about the house will be gathered from you to ensure all buyer queries can be answered. Finding your new home - If you have little time to find and view prospective new homes, why not let Innerspace do the searching? Given a detailed brief or your requirements, Innerspace can research the market and view properties on your behalf, giving a report on suitable properties for you to view at your leisure - and ensuring that you only view those properties that really suit you.     "You never get a second chance to make a first impression"
