Have you ever heard the expression “staging a house?” This is something that Nashville realtors do all the time to help them sell a home. Basically, when a realtor decides to take on a new property they have three choices: 1) try to sell it as is 2) sell it as an empty unit or 3) stage the house. For some reason they have found that staging a house is the most effective way of being able to slap a “Sold” sticker onto the “For Sale” sign.

To stage a house, a realtor essentially decorates it from top to bottom. We’re not just talking about throwing up some new curtains or bringing in fresh flowers. To stage a house means to bring in all new furniture, rugs, pillows and knick knacks. This gives potential Nashville buyers a chance to see what a home might look and feel like if they were to move in. Naturally, some homeowners might take offense if they are asked to move out all of their furniture to replace it with showroom pieces. It’s also odd that a potential buyer would look at some furniture in a home that wasn’t going to be there when they moved in and allow that to make their decision for them.

If you’re getting into the Nashville real estate market for the first time and are looking to flip homes, you might consider staging a house. You could make arrangements with a local decorator or furniture seller to donate their services in exchange for free advertising. It’s a pretty good deal if you get a lot of traffic through a home and have those folks ask where the furniture is from.

One of the quickest ways to flip a home these days is getting in on the ground floor of the foreclosure market. This requires some quick action on your part. When you see a home that has been abandoned it might not be in the best shape. But don’t let some left behind furniture or garbage scare you away. That’s all cosmetic. If an inspector says the home is sound then go for it. Next step would be to hire a local Nashville foreclosure clean out crew like Junk King to swoop in and give your property a thorough scrubbing.

That will be the time to bring in the staging items and let your potential buyers experience all the possibilities. Even if you opt for a fresh coat of paint, you’re still going to need to clean the place first. Let the pros handle the cleaning while you line up the buyers.
