With the holiday rush happening on top of your home selling process, you may realize that selling a home during winter is more stressful that doing it in another season. But if you really intend to successfully sell your home during the holidays, you gotta make your home convincing to the buyers and make them think that it is the best place for them to spend the holidays in. Here are some staging guidelines that will help you get through the process:
Color Complements
If you think that the typical holiday colors of green, gold, and red do not match your home's natural colors, why not go for flashy pieces instead? Go for flashy decors that share the same color as what your home has, or another color that makes a good accent to your home's look. If your home has a peach color, you may go for a mettalic peach shade for your holiday decoration pieces.
Wreaths are a classic choice
Wreaths are probably one of the most perfect touch to create a holiday inspired home. In home selling, a wreath placed outside the front door will help buyers see your home as the place where they'll be opening gifts and hanging red socks for the exciting season ahead. The idea in here is that we would like buyers to view your home as a comfortable place where they can spend the holidays and other seasons in.
Holiday goods
What's more exciting during the holidays aside from gifts and shopping? Holiday baked goods of course! Doing an early holiday baking for potential buyers who are checking your home could be your way to home selling success. You can go for shortbread, fruitcakes, or gingerbread and this can actually increase the potential buyers' comfort level staying in your home. Going for a homey effect is the goal here, so that your potential buyers can imagine themselves living in that home.
Simple tree
If you want people to feel comfortable inside your home, you should stay clear of putting so much personal touches on your holiday tree. Furthermore, having an overdone tree can distract the potential home buyers and make them lose focus on the other good traits of your home. So instead of using so much decors, go for a simple tree with a few lightings and little decorations. This will still scream holiday but it won't take away the attention that is meant for your entire home.
