• Home Stager

  • Oct 2013 - Apr 2014

  A house looks more attractive to potential buyers when it’s decorated, furnished and free of clutter. Empty houses can be difficult to show because prospective buyers can’t always imagine what the house will look like once they move in and furnished it. A house that’s “staged” appropriately is more inviting and can increase the odds that it will sell. As a home stager for Powers Realty Group, I work with home sellers to present their home in the best way possible, making it appealing to a wide range of buyers. I arrange furniture, add or take away accessories to show each room's potential and maximum square footage. Additionally, I orchestrate painting and home repairs to create a pleasant environment to show prospective buyers.
