House improvements best left to a Homestaging Specialist 

If you’re choosing to make any major changes in preparation for a Wellington house sale, we would recommend reading this blog first! Before buying a single bucket of paint or roll of carpet, here are a few ways a Wellington homestaging expert might be able to save you fuss and finances in terms of Wellington house renovations. 

Light 

When the furniture is removed from a home in preparation for sale and you take a walk through your empty home, you’re hit with one of two realisations: “Wow, my house is really dark!” or “Wow, my house is glaringly bright!”

Whichever realisation you make, don’t feel pressured to rush out and make purchases of curtains, dark paints or dark carpets in an attempt to diffuse a bright home. Avoid trying to brighten a dark home with copious lamps or a brighter light installation. Instead, leave your house to the interior experts at Homestaging Wellington. 

It only takes a few well-placed paintings, just-right coloured furnishings, perfectly shaded rugs and elegantly arranged floor lamps to bring a room to the ideal level of brightness. Save yourself money and leave your empty house to be transformed by a Wellington home staging professional. You’ll be glad you did, and so will your wallet! 

Colour

We know. It can be outstandingly tempting to rush out and stock up on buckets of brilliant paints in all manner of fun shades. As interior design experts and specialists in all things house sales, we can assure you that brightly coloured paints, carpets and finishings are some of the most challenging elements to work with when it comes to sprucing up a home for sale. They simply leave little to no wiggle room for stylish, modern and broadly-appealing interior design. 

Any homestaging furniture we use will need to be muted; positioned to calm the eye and draw it away from any obnoxiously bright walls, doors, carpets and cupboards. 

The whole point of homestaging is to compliment a home, but if a home is inundated with loud, bright colours, it’ll detract from the delicate, sophisticated features that a more neutral colour palette might have exposed more effectively. 

As with lighting, our Wellington home staging solution is simple. We’ll spruce your home with skillfully placed furnishings and decorations that’ll give each room a comfortable, modern and fresh feeling without detracting from the building’s beautiful architectural qualities. If a room needs a bright ‘pick-me-up’ element, we’ll let a bold piece of coloured furniture or a vibrant fruit bowl do the talking. That way, if a potential buyer enjoys the property and prefers the neutral shades, they’ll be free to choose whether or not to enhance them with their own personal choice of feature wall or patterned floor.
