Spring into Action..
Spring is a natural time of change bringing with it new growth, sunshine and a fresh outlook. If you are considering selling your home this spring, these seasonal styling and staging tips can help you engage buyers with a cheerful, welcoming, and warm environment.
Focus on First Impressions
Imagine you are seeing your house for the first time and waiting for someone to open the door. What do you see ? Ensure a clean exterior appearance by power washing your paths and drive, wash your windows, clear winter debris, tidy the gardens. A fresh coat of paint on your front door can create a welcoming first impression. Consider mowing your lawn diagonally to make your garden appear larger.
Spring Clean the Interior
We know it isn’t everyone’s favourite job but scrub your home until it sparkles. Freshen up the interior by putting away your winter wardrobe, organise and de-clutter the space to make it feel light, airy and spacious.
Embrace the Change of Season
Embrace the
new beginnings by integrating floral prints, bright colours, or spring flowers. Consider accenting colourful artwork, decorations, pillows, throws, glass bowls filled with fruit, and other accessories against a neutral backdrop to add warmth and energy to your home. Replace your darker winter towels for brighter, more colourful ones.
Go Green and Introduce Natural Elements
Let the light flood in and use light colours to brighten up the space and make the rooms feel bigger. Consider bringing in plants to add a splash of colour and make the home buyer feel closer to nature. Odd-number pairings, especially threes, tend to be more appealing to the eyes.
Smells like Spring
Bringing in the spring aromas is one way to ensure that your house smells amazing when buyers visit. Lilies or peonies can add a fresh, spring scent to your space. Lemons are a great natural deodorizer that also add a splash of colour to your kitchen and a dash of spice to your drink. If you prefer non-perishable items, consider using a candle warmer or diffusing essential oils.
These spring staging tips will help you create a warm, lively, and cheerful environment where buyers can image their new lifestyle and the possibilities.
Spring is a great time to be selling your home.
