What is property presentation?

Property presentation is a marketing technique used to get your property ready to sell or rent faster and at the best price.  You wouldn’t sell a car without giving it a good wash, service and a full tank of petrol so apply the same techniques to selling your home!

Extremely popular in the USA property presentation (also known as home staging or house doctoring) is gaining popularity in the UK.  Showhomes in the UK have been staged for years and other examples of property presentation techniques can be found on TV programmes such as the House Doctor and Selling Houses in which a home stylist visits the property and gives verbal advice with regard to selling or renting the property quickly and for a good price.  The property owner (or the stylist) then transforms the property into a more saleable one which prospective buyers will aspire to live in. 

This verbal advice is called a consultation in which the home stylist has a site visit (looking at first impressions outside, a room by room analysis, plus looking at your garage and garden).  She then gives recommendations regarding first impressions (also known as kerb appeal), colours schemes, furniture placement, soft furnishing and accessories plus advice how to declutter in order to gain more space in the property.  She also uses her personal knowledge about the housing market, marketing techniques and design trends.

It is not interior design but an inexpensive way of presenting your property (usually with a lot of the things you already own) in order to sell quickly and for a good price.

You may have your property on at the right price but perhaps are not getting any buyers - by presenting your property correctly you can attract a wider target audience and therefore a faster sale.  With so many houses on the market now you can get yours to stand out from the rest.

Finally property now forms the principle part of most people’s wealth portfolio.  Why not add to that wealth by increasing the overall value of your property by having it professionally staged before you put it on the market?
