Stagers

Staging is such a huge part of selling a home in Seattle. We all know the statistic about how staged homes increase traffic/interest to your listing, sell homes faster, sell homes at higher asking prices, etc. The importance of staging cannot be understated but as a Real Estate Photographer I can tell you that not all Staging is created equal. I photograph a lot of homes and there are things that I notice about staging that most people do not. From things like how furniture is placed in a room, how wall art is hung, to small details like how to pillows are arranged. These are things that I look for when I’m photographing and if they are not done properly, are things I need to fix which is time I’m wasting not taking photos. Below are two companies that I trust that when I’m photographing their work I know the homes will always be perfect when I arrive and I can focus on taking the best possible photos.

Open House Staging

have had the pleasure of photographing many homes that were staged by Open House Staging and can instantly recognize their work when I enter the home and not just because of the beautiful business card they have by the door. They have a unique style that makes you feel like you’re home when you enter one of their listings. They have mastered the ability to stage a home without it coming across as overly staged or or too trendy. You really get the sense that you could live there. I always get design ideas for my own home when I see their work!

“Good Design cannot exist in the absence of good service” - Justin Riordan, Founder of Space and Archer

Spade and Archer

The first thing you will notice when you walk into a Spade and Archer listing is the way they set the dining room table; flatware stacked, stemware grouped together, and cloth napkins neatly laid on top of one another. You get the feeling that you’re hosting a dinner party and whole house is staged perfectly for company. Their work is magazine ready, on trend with out being too specific, and their use of color sticks in your head and makes it easy for buyers to talk about rooms simply by referring to the color theme. “Ohh, I really loved the bedroom with the blue throw”.

Cleaners

It doesn’t matter how beautiful a home is if it doesn’t make buyers feel comfortable when they tour the property. Getting your listing properly cleaned before it goes on the market is an essential part of the home selling process. Unless you’re selling a fix and flip or a tear down, buyers are going to want to see the home in person before they make an offer and nothing can turn potential buyers off more than seeing all of those small (and sometimes big) lived in stains and dirt from the previous owners

Contractors

You’ve heard it time and time again, ‘You gotta spend money to make money”, and selling a home is no exception. If the current owner has lived in the home for over 10 years, chances are it’s not what today’s buyers would consider “up to date”. Small remodels like updating the kitchen and bathrooms, replacing worn out floors/carpets, and adding energy efficient windows, appliances, and water tanks can boost the value of the home and help it get an offer faster.

Painters

One of the quickest and simplest ways to breath new life into a home is by giving it a fresh coat of paint both inside and out. It doesn’t just make the home look better but it can help cover up a lot of the wear and tear you see on older homes. In most cases the first photo buyers see is an exterior photo and a fresh coat of paint can help make a great first impression.
