Are you getting ready to sell your home this spring? We all know that when it comes time to sell a home it needs to be home staged in such a way that will impress those potential buyers. Whether you have newer furniture, or if you have furniture that is outdated and in need of some TLC, or just a trip to the local thrift store, investing in the right furniture to showcase your home is a must.
The first order of business is to go through your home and see what honestly needs to go. If it is something that has sentimental value, but not really something that adds a vintage or classic look to your house, then you need to find a place to put it that is not in sight of your potential buyers. Once you have done that with all the furniture in your home, then it comes time to find replacements. That could be anything replacing from an old recliner, coffee and end tables, dining room table, or even those old dressers you keep meaning to restore but never do. Being honest with yourself about what can stay, what needs to go is the most important thing. Remember the old saying ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder’. Looking at it from a buyer’s perspective, not the owners/your perspective will help you gain a new eye into your home staging to sell.
Now it’s time to put together your list of furniture that needs replacing. Fair warning, your list may be very overwhelming, all depending on the current state of your furniture. If you have a long list of furniture that needs replacing, think about what is going to come with you to the new house, what might go with the sale of the house, or what you may not be needing at all when you move. This will show you where your investments truly lie. If you are keeping the furniture, you may consider investing in that new couch you have always wanted, or if you feel that it could up the value of the house to include it in with the sale, you may just want to spring for an entire living room set. Remember to think of every purchase for your furniture as an investment.
