How to Prepare and Stage Your Home for Real Estate Photos

 

 

 

“The do's" and "dont's" when staging your home for real estate pictures:

 

 

To do:

 

1. Declutter: Remove any unnecessary items from the rooms to create a clean and spacious look.

 

2. Clean thoroughly: Make sure every surface is spotless, including floors, countertops, and windows.

 

3. Depersonalize: Remove personal items like family photos and unique artwork to allow potential buyers to envision themselves in the space.

 

4. Neutralize colors: Use neutral colors for walls and furniture to appeal to a wider range of buyers.

 

5. Maximize natural light: Open curtains and blinds to let in as much natural light as possible.

 

6. Highlight key features: Showcase the best features of your home, such as a fireplace or a beautiful view.

 

7. Stage each room: Arrange furniture and decor in a way that highlights the functionality and flow of each room.

 

 

Dont's:

 

1. Leave personal items out: Avoid leaving personal items like toothbrushes or toiletries in plain sight.

 

2. Overdecorate: Keep decorations minimal and tasteful to avoid overwhelming potential buyers.

 

3. Neglect curb appeal: Ensure the exterior of your home is well-maintained and inviting.

 

4. Forget about odors: Eliminate any unpleasant odors by cleaning, airing out the space, or using air fresheners.

 

5. Use outdated furniture or decor: Opt for modern and stylish furniture to create a more appealing aesthetic.

 

6. Leave pets in the house: Remove pets and their belongings during the photoshoot to avoid distractions.

 

7. Ignore small repairs: Fix any minor issues like leaky faucets or loose doorknobs before taking pictures.
