Don’t let selling your home during the holiday season dampen your holiday spirit. Create a buyer-friendly home with these seasonal staging tips.
- A few subtle touches like pinecone centerpieces and an evergreen wreath can create a warm and festive feeling in your home. Avoid overtly religious items, this may be off-putting to some buyers.
- Make sure your holiday decorations match your current decor. If your family room has a clean blue and white color scheme, then skip the clashing red garland. If you have an earthy color scheme, then accent with rich tones like cranberries, forest greens and gold.
- Too much can distract buyers, but the right amount of accessories can draw attention to your home’s best features. Try hanging a few tasteful ornaments from your mantel to highlight an elegant fireplace.
- Go light on the lights and leave the inflatable snowman in the storage room. Instead, use simple string lights to play up your home’s architecture or draw attention to your landscaping.
- If your living space is small, then save space with a skinny Christmas tree. Swap the kids’ homemade ornaments for cohesive themed ornaments such as all red and gold, or icicle lights and silver tinsel.
