You can however follow some tricks to decrease your home’s time in the waiting list. According to the Real Estate Staging Association statistics, homes staged before being listed got a proposal in less than 23 days on average. This is 90% quicker than those that waited for months for a staging.

Your tidying tendencies are the way to win a deal. Be ready to clutter-bust through buyers’ hearts!
Though far away from a rocket science, de-cluttering can help create a satisfying environment and strong first impressions. You should pay special attention to the following:
- Laundry room shelves
- Fireplace mantels
- Magazine racks
- Tabletops
- Kitchen and bathroom counters
No de-cluttering effort will be complete without streamlining your closet. The way to impress a potential buyer is showing just how much space is there, rather than how much stuff is occupying the place.
Rearrange the Furniture
Once you’re done cluttering the stuff, it’s time to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. Is your home inviting enough to people? Is moving inside your home possible without bumping into stuff?
Firstly, move away furniture from the wall and keep the bulky pieces in the storehouse. What buyers want is an open space with an intimate atmosphere; they want to feel the house while inspecting it.
Sweeten the Details
Oftentimes chaps fail to understand the importance of cleaning their home before staging.
You have to work even on the smallest details to make them look great. And, do not keep even an inch unwashed.
Set the Table
A proper staging showcases how it would feel to be living in your home to a potential buyer. Pay special attention to the dining room. Bring out everything you have to show your cordiality. Your dinnerware will talk for you. To get some inspiration, follow Houzz or Pinterest.
Bring the Outside In
You can make the most of summer by bringing the essence of it inside your home. For example, fresh flowers are a great mood elevator. They create a warming atmosphere for everyone. Moreover, you can keep a bowl of fresh produce on the kitchen counter to entice people.
