What is home styling?
Home styling involves preparing a home for sale.
Whether that be styling a property that is currently lived in, or bringing furniture, homewares and accessories into a home that is vacant, home styling can set your property apart from the rest.
Real Estate is an ever-changing market and no longer is it simply a case of popping a sign out the front, investing the bare minimum in marketing and expecting your agent to do the rest.
The misconceptions of home styling
One of the biggest misconception about home styling is that it is for a more luxury market and that it isn’t affordable. However having a home for sale, that isn’t presented at its best, will cost you in the long term.
