Ready

Are you buying your dream home, upgrading to a larger place, or moving to a dream destination? Perhaps you’re doing all three. (Lucky you!) When you’re ready to take the plunge but have to sell your current property before taking off to the new nest, home staging can make a huge difference. Among the myriad services that estate sales company BHM specializes in, staging is at the top of our list.

Real estate professionals often recommend staging to maximize buyer interest and, consequently, effect a faster sale at a higher price. According to a 2021 study by business data provider Statista, the greatest positive effect of staging is that it more easily enables prospective buyers to envision a home on the market as theirs. Depending on the condition of the property, staging major areas like the living room and master bedroom might entail painting, updating light fixtures, and swapping out furniture and art.

Set

Despite industry recommendations, however, sellers may be hesitant to invest in a big staging job when they’re about to make a big investment in a new home. BHM gets it, which is why we take a resourceful approach to our craft. In other words, we know how to balance both the costs and cosmetics of a professional staging job.

What sets us apart from other houses? We focus on repurposing pieces that you already own, in addition to cleaning, decluttering, and sprucing up areas that need attention. We make careful selections and artful arrangements—based on the latest staging trends—so that your home’s best features stand out. We move furniture to maximize the square footage of living and play spaces. We also shop your very own cabinets to find hidden treasures that add pizzazz to shelves and display cases. In addition, we remove excess items and heavy draperies to highlight useable areas and amplify natural light. What’s more, we treat your whole home so that its curb appeal matches that of its curated interiors. Above all, our team works quickly without compromising quality.
