Real Estate Staging

What’s ahead in 2008? Real Estate professionals and homeowners alike can always benefit from recognizing the trends as they develop and ensuring their surroundings reflect them.

Hot in ReDesign
• Eco friendly paints, flooring and furniture
• Furniture and colour palettes that reflects the trend to natural tones and sustainable products.
• Space Conservation in non-traditional places - scaled back dining tables, narrower buffets and small curio cabinets for smaller dining rooms or dual-purpose rooms.
• ReDesign for seniors - easy to access storage, easily adjusted, simple window treatments, handrails on both sides of stairwells and master bedrooms located on the main floor.
• Conserving space through products that perform- folding stools for extra seating or topped with a wooden tray to serve as a small table, sliding room dividers to define living spaces in open concept layouts; fabric or leather cubes for additional seating or as side tables.

Hot in the Realty Market
• 80% of buyers start their search on the Internet.
• 25% of women searching for a home are looking for fixer uppers and plan to do the work themselves.
• 79% of buyers would pay a premium for a renovated kitchen, 73% for a renovated bathroom, 70% for new windows, 62% for new flooring and 36% for updated décor.
• Listings with a Virtual Tour are viewed 40% more than others.
• Garages are the next big selling point. Reclaim the garage for cars and workshops by finding alternate places for storage such as mobile storage containers. You pack and they store.
