If you have children, then it’s pretty likely that you have a lot of clutter laying around: old clothes that they’ve grown out of, broken or outdated toys, and general house clutter. The first step in staging your home is decluttering all the unused stuff that have been sitting around.Toys and clothing in good condition can be sold online or at a yard sale. You can also donate your unwanted items to charities like Goodwill or to shelters. Many sellers opt to rent a storage unit when decluttering to store items they intend to keep or larger items like furniture and appliances.
If your children are older, then it’s likely that they understand the importance of this transition. However this transition can be tough for younger children. When staging your home with kids, it’s essential to determine which items are crucial for keeping your kids engaged during the staging process. These can be items like a favorite book, favorite toys or even a tablet. Having methods of keeping your children entertained is important for helping them manage the transition.
Staging your home for sale can be an endeavor, especially when you have children running around. During the process of staging your home, it can be useful to ask for help or hire the help of professionals. The help of friends and family can make staging your home much easier. Alternatively, you can seek the help of professional house stagers. While this can be expensive, the increase in the value of your home is well worth your investment.
If you’ve spent money and time staging your house, the last thing you want is for your children to ruin your perfectly staged home. Think of things to do to keep them occupied.
