Catherine Pansini is the owner of CMP NJ, LLC which offers many services including home staging.
Staging a home is the art of adding or rearranging decor and furniture before listing a home for sale. Proper staging can help make the home feel larger and lighter, and draw attention to unique features of the home such as fireplaces or large windows.
Studies have shown that buyers make higher offers on staged homes and are more likely to visit a home when there is furniture placed in it. If a home is vacant, staging the home can help buyers imagine how their furniture will look and feel inside the property, resulting in a higher chance of the buyer becoming emotionally invested in the property.
