Home Staging
Christie Kirsch Home Interiors works in conjunction with builders and real estate agents to create a staged home to help sell a listing that just isn’t up to its potential. We can take a vacant space and transform it to have a more “lived in” feel. It can give your potential buyer a perspective as to how the home can look furnished and decorated. Most vacant homes do not sell because the buyer needs to see how they can envision themselves living there.
BEFORE
As you can see in the photo on this page, the vacant space makes it very difficult to imagine how your own furnishings might look in this setting. In the photo showing the room after the staging makeover it much easier for a potential buyer to envision the room being their own home.
AFTER
We have worked with builders that own their own staging furniture of which we set up and then finish the room settings with accessories to give the home more of a lived in feeling. Additionally we have worked with builders that we have helped make arrangements with furniture suppliers for the staging process. Which ever the case most builders agree that the fully furnished staged home would sell much faster than one that is not staged.
