Staged home in Bloomingdale, IL
This townhouse in Bloomingdale, IL is a
classic example of home staging. At first
glance, this townhouse appears unremarkable and even, dare
we say, bland.

But inside, it's a totally different
story. The home's interior has been staged to
perfection, catching the eye of many a prospective buyer.
Let's take a peek inside.

What could have been a boring
and uninviting foyer has been spruced up with the addition
of a few carefully chosen accessories. The table lamp
gives a feeling of warmth and the greenery softens up the
flat, utilitarian, white wall. This makes a great
first impression, as a staged home should.

After being staged, the great
room looks fantastic. The furniture has been angled
for dramatic impact but also appears to invite guests to
come in and sit down. Notice again the use of accent
lighting that makes the room appear bright and cheerful.
Carefully chosen accent pillows and throws contrast nicely
with the white furniture.

The kitchen is the showpiece
of this home. Admittedly, the upscale appliances and
appliances contribute greatly to its appeal, but the kitchen
has been effectively de-cluttered and de-personalized that
that it shows like a kitchen in a model home.

Before staging this bathroom
was just too stark, but the addition of a new window
treatment and a few colorful accents turn this bathroom into
an inviting space.

This bedroom already had
color on the walls, but it was still missing something.
A feeling of warmth and coziness was created through the use
of accent lighting, new window treatments, and an assortment
of pillows.
The use of home staging
transformed the interior of this home from ho-hum into a
lovely gem and captured buyer's interest from the moment
that they walked in. Just down the street, there were
other units for sale with nearly identical floor plans, but
none of them generated the kind of interest that this staged
home
did. Within three weeks, it generated a serious
offer -- now that's the power of home staging!
