Get matched with top home stagers in Mound, MN

The main factors to consider when staging your home when selling are your budget, number of rooms to stage, and how long to keep the staged setup. Since home staging costs about $600 per room when using professional services, you may want to only stage the rooms that are most important to potential buyers, including the kitchen, living room, and primary bedroom. You should also consider which repairs or updates are necessary before staging your home, such as painting interior walls, carpet cleaning, and refinishing hardwood floors.

Professional home staging services can vary between companies and properties, but the primary goal is to set up a house with aesthetic furniture and decor to entice potential buyers. Many stagers offer customizable packages, and you can often pay for additional services. Common offerings include:

• Design and Planning: Color design, planning each room's layout, and professional interior design services.

• Furniture and Decor: Choosing and renting furniture, decor, and artwork. This also includes the setup and takedown of all rented materials.

• Arrangement and Organization: Rearranging existing furniture, decluttering, and organizing the space.

• Ambiance: Creating a welcoming atmosphere with strategic lighting and accessories.

• Repairs and Maintenance: Minor repairs, home maintenance, and addressing visible issues.
