How to Stage Your Wilmington Home This Winter

Want to buy a Wilmington Home? Search all homes for sale.

According to a recent study conducted by the National Association of Realtors, 81% of home buyers found a house more enticing if it’s staged. If you’ll be listing your home for sale this winter, follow these strategies to entice those prospective buyers.
  1. Pay attention to the housing exterior. I recommend a pressure wash, cutting the lawn, raking leaves, and anything else to clean up.
  2. Tend to your kitchen and bathrooms. Clean up these rooms and nice touches, such as flowers and similar accents. Bring out the colors!
  3. Bring in as much natural light as possible. You want rooms to appear bright. Open the windows by pulling up the blinds or opening up the curtains. It’s a good time to remove the screens and store them.
  4. Add fresh linens to the beds. Brightened up the room with fresh bedding.
  5. Ensure your home is at a comfortable temperature during shows. I recommend setting the temperature between 70 and 72 degrees Fahrenheit. It shouldn’t be too hot or too cold, even when guests have their coats on.
