Home staging plays a very important part in successfully selling your house. The impression that the buyer makes of your home is what will determine him to make you an offer for it or keep looking. Here is what a properly staged house should convey to the buyer:

Cleanliness

Your house needs to look spotless. Because we might at times miss something important, it’s recommended to hire a professional cleaning firm at least once before starting to show your house to prospective buyers. While you are at it, it’s a good idea to depersonalize the space – remove family photos and personal items off the shelves, to allow the buyers to feel more comfortable inside your house and not like they are intruding in someone else’s home.

Space

The first thing you need to do in order to create space is to de-clutter. It’s a good idea to just take a look around and remove anything non-essential. Don’t forget kitchen appliances – it’s best to just remove or hide them, same with knives and anything else you might have lying around. Instead, add a vase of flowers or a bowl of fruits.

Your rooms need to look warm and inviting. Furniture can play a significant part here. It’s a good idea to arrange it in such a manner as to maximize the impression of space and at the same time group pieces together to maximize the potential for conversation.

Brightness

Buyers love a house which has enough light. Make sure your windows let as much light through as possible, and change your lamps with stronger ones. You should aim for something in the range of 100w for 50-60 square feet.

Color

It’s a good idea to use neutral colors for areas like the living room and kitchen, because beside being the safer option (different people have different tastes), it also makes a room look more spacious and brighter. For bedrooms however, don’t be afraid to use other colors. Avoid strong, vivid colors like pink – instead go for dark, relaxing colors, which will make the room look more intimate and cozier.

You can further add color to your house by using décor, such as flowers or artwork. Experiment with the way you arrange them, to obtain the best possible effect and draw attention to specific areas of the room.

Every buyer looks for the perfect house. And while it’s true that different people can have very different ideas of what the perfect house should look like, by applying the tips above you will greatly increase the chance that they visualize your house as their future home.

Residential listings are up almost 30 percent compared to January of last year. 2,316 new listings came on the MLS® System for the Edmonton Census Metropolitan Area (CMA) in January compared to only 932 new listings in December. Sales for January were 666 (not adjusted) – down 13.5 percent month over month and down 25.9 percent from last year. These two factors resulted in a 35 percent inventory growth from 3,059 to 4,132 last month. Inventory is up almost 17 percent from the same time last year.

We ended 2014 with low inventory. While this is not unusual for the winter, it can make it difficult for buyers to find the right home. The influx of properties we have seen on the market in January will be a relief for buyers – allowing them more choice in their price range and possibly more time to make their selection.Buyers in the popular $400,000 price range often struggled in 2014 to find their ideal property or had to move quickly before it sold. This increase in inventory will be a great benefit to them.

Prices still remain strong in the Edmonton CMA market. The all residential price went up almost 1 percent from last month to $362,394 (up 3.75 percent from January 2014). Single family houses averaged $427,178 down half a percent from December, but up over 3 percent from the previous year. Condo prices stayed stable at $247,116 – up 5.5 percent from January 2014. We are continuing to see last year’s trend of high priced properties elevating the average prices. Last month, nine of the 666 properties sold for over $900,000.

The average days-on-market last month was 58, up from 55 in December and down from 60 in January 2014.

We are likely seeing the effects of oil prices and a feeling of economic cautiousness among some buyers. Clients are looking to REALTORS® for advice and guidance to navigate their own individual situations. We expect more of an uptake in the market as spring approaches and more people start to look for homes.Low interest rates will continue to drive the housing market.
