How We Prepare Your Property for Sale

Once you decide to sell your property, it makes good economic sense to do what you can to achieve the best sale price.  Selecting the right agent is one step; presenting your property to appeal to your “target market” is another.  This is what we refer to as Home Staging or Home Presentation.

Home Staging is different to home decorating where you create an environment to suit your personal taste. In Home Staging you create an environment to appeal to potential buyers, so that is why the process is about neutralising, de-personalising and de-cluttering.  The reason for this makes absolute sense once you understand the rationale behind it.  First and foremost, you want an atmosphere where potential buyers can visualise themselves and their belongings in the property rather than feeling they are intruding. Second, you want to draw attention to the features the property offers rather than things like worn or dirty surfaces or collections of family photographs.

Many buyers are time poor, so another important part of home staging is creating a “ready-to-move–in” atmosphere.  Often presentation changes are as simple as removing some of your every day clutter, opening curtains and making all the surfaces sparkle. Other times more specialised work is needed. And because it can often be hard for you to decide what is essential and what is “the icing” to guarantee a great sale result, we always recommend you take up your free consultation with “Presenting Beautiful Homes”.

Their consultants are experts and will advise on maintenance and refurbishment as necessary and suggest how to arrange the interior to appeal to the broadest range of buyers. Your consultant can also arrange quotes, co-ordinate trades and works and provide staging items as you choose.

The Veitch team will work with you throughout this process, because we know that it is a vital component in achieving a great sales result.
