Neutral Homes= Happy Buyers

home stagingKeep your decor clean and fresh.

A home is one of the most important investment that a person make in their life. A home is your personal branding, it is the physical window into, or a representation of, who you are. When people enter the front door they are greeted with the essence of you (your individuality, your taste, your attitude, your hygiene, your success, all your likes and dislikes). Like it or not, these are some judgements that is formed the minute a person enters a home.

This is one of the reason why, most people take pride in their space. They want a relaxed, beautiful, and enjoyable space to “live out themselves”, and to entertain their guests. Because of this, many people invest priceless times to finding the right home in the right neighbourhood, and is willing to alter their budget to get into the right space. People also spend countless hours in search for the right paint colour, lighting, drapery, furniture and accessories to decorate their home… Because their home reflects them.

This is also one big reason why it is so hard for home owners to “depersonalize” their space when preparing their home for sale. It is an invasive process. People find it difficult to receive or accept negative feedbacks about their space, just like they would about their attire.
So, when preparing a home for sale, it is important to first, desensitize yourself from your home. This, will enable you to neutralize the depersonalize your personal style, and create a style that will attract the majority of potential buyers for your home. When in doubt, It is best to keep things neutral, clean and at a minimal… Unless, of course, your home and your personal style is already that of what most buyers desire.

Happy depersonalizing!

decorating with peonies

Peonies are very well-loved and known, and a respected flower symbol throughout the traditional Asian culture. It has been used by the Chinese as their national flower along with the plum blossom. Peonies are often represented through Asian art as, “the flowers of riches and honour”, and are recommended to be placed into the home to bring in more love and prosperity.
In home decor, peonies can add freshness and glamour to any room. These magnificent flowers, with their luscious large blooms never fail to catch my attention. They are extremely hard to resist!
I just redecorated my space and decided to incorporate these gorgeous flowers into my bedroom.
Even I can’t say no to more love and good fortune…

Chintz and Company (http://chintz.com/t-inspired.aspx) : silk pink peonies and vines ~$30
No bugs= No mess! At least until the real ones bloom.
Homesense: silk cream peonies $12, glass vase $10

Sell Your Space

LINDSAY DO

Staging a house for sale does not need to be a complicated project, if you keep in mind, less is more.
Minimize and depersonalize!
We’ve seen properties where every corner of the space is filled with ‘stuff’, and it doesn’t need to be that way.
Corners, for the most part does not need to be occupied. It is false to believe that by ‘creating functionality’ to every corner of a house, one will give that house more value. The actual fact is, less stuff = more money saved.
So instead of fluffing every corner of your home, allocate your budget to the central living areas, and making that your main attraction.

When staging your home, always remember to keep one goal in mind—- to sell the house.
Once your house is on the market, it is no longer “your home”. So throw out your personal tastes and preferences when staging, and focus on making the house easy for buyers to transition into.
People want to be enticed by the possibility of the space rather than be overwhelmed with excessive personal and visual information; therefore, it is best to keep things clean, and create spaces to exude warmth and livability.

Happy clean staging!
