House Gets Transformed Before
Listing
The Country Look Is Out; Contemporary Is
In!

Before: FoyerBuyers don’t want to walk in and see other people’s shoes and
family photos.

After: FoyerNow the foyer is ready for anyone to picture themselves living in
this house: the shoes and photos are gone; a large clock functions
as a piece of art.

Before: Living Room
Black is not a welcoming color in big
doses. The curtains block too much light, the hardwood floors
are TOO bare.

After: Living room
After staging, this living room is light,
bright, and welcoming! The white shag rug and colorful
pillows really add warmth.

Before: Family Room
Who can see past the mess?! This room needs major de-
cluttering, the pine paneling and small
pictures need to go.

After: Family Room
Is this the same room? De-cluttering, re-
painting, removing the large curtains turn this room from a playroom into a relaxing family
retreat.

Before: Outdated
cornerThis corner screams
“granny” and “exercise” – neither
convey sales appeal!

After: Updated!
Now this space is airy, light, and bright, thanks to the addition of a new
neutral slipcover, an inexpensive
contemporary end table and lamp, and trendy
accessories.

Before, “Office”?
Before staging, is this room an office, an
eating area, homework area, or
crafts room? There’s so much going on in here, it’s hard to tell. Each room needs one
defined purpose.
![Page 11: Midland Park House](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103010/540714da8d7f723d618b48fb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Staging reveals an
office!Now this room is
shown to full advantage. Buyers will see a spacious, bright office without
the messy distractions of so much furniture
and clutter.

Before: Master Bedroom
Before staging, this bedroom is all country with outdated sponge
painting and a wallpaper border.
![Page 13: Midland Park House](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103010/540714da8d7f723d618b48fb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
After: Master Bedroom
Now, the bedroom is updated and much
more luxurious. Candles and flowers give that “retreat”
feel.

Before: A “busy”
bedroomThis child’s bedroom has way too many
patterns and distractions. With all
the truck and bulldozer décor, it says “little
boy” a little too loudly!
![Page 15: Midland Park House](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103010/540714da8d7f723d618b48fb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
After, A Subdued Room!
After staging, this bedroom looks more
generic, relaxing, and appealing.

Before, An Overflowing
ClosetThis closet shows buyers there isn’t enough storage room . . . Not a
comforting message.
![Page 17: Midland Park House](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103010/540714da8d7f723d618b48fb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
After: A Spacious
ClosetNow this large closet shows off how much storage space this
home office actually has.

Before: PatioThis patio is used as a toy/catch-all area that looks unfinished and
unattractive.

After: Staged For RelaxingThe owners finished
the “paver” wall, added plants and a $100 bistro set, and
voila: a sheltered place to envision having a
cup of coffee.
