WHAT DOES A RESIDENTIAL STYLIST DO? 

A home stylist's task is to prepare your home for sale. They are the ones who help you and arrange for the home to be ready for the photographer's arrival. A good prospect is important to show the home from its best side. It should show furnishing options, as well as be light and airy, but most importantly: invite the potential buyers to begin a dream of a new home. A good home stylist ensures more stakeholders which in turn can lead to more bidders and a higher selling price. It is therefore the case that hiring a home stylist does not increase the value of your home, but can in many cases increase the sum you are left with after the sale.

We humans act a lot with emotions and not always with logic. A good home stylist manages to arouse the emotions of those who see the prospect and thus increases their interest in coming to a viewing. It is therefore important that the home is cleared of superfluous things, remove all personal photos and possessions and then decorate in a way that is neutral but at the same time atmospheric. This is important as the aim is for the potential buyers not to get hung up on who has lived there, but to be able to start seeing their own home, where they want to live.

Most people see a property for the first time in an advertisement. The first impression is very important and therefore it is important that everything is as perfect as possible. Good pictures also ensure that more people want to come to a viewing, which in turn can lead to faster sales. 

HOW DOES A HOME STYLIST HELP YOU SELL YOUR HOME?

When you decide to sell your home, it is a home to be sold. In this process, it is important that your home is presented as a new home to the buyers. It is difficult to see one's own home with a new and neutral eye. Know what should be removed, cleared away and possibly acquired. Most people find it difficult to decorate with cushions and decorations and to see color combinations. In addition, it is expensive to buy things. It may therefore be wise, both in terms of time, finances and knowledge, to bring in a stylist. It is their job to see the room and to create the good feelings in the picture. They help you to clean the home down to the most essential and then rebuild it with what is needed to give the photographer the basis for taking great photos. A home stylist's job can be challenging at times, we have to be brutally honest, but it's never a personal attack on the people who live there or the item we say doesn't fit. Many people have a close and dear relationship with their home and we must respect that. At the same time, our job is to help you as a seller to get a good sale. A residential stylist offers several different types of services as different clients have different needs.

THE DIFFERENT STYLING SERVICES

Guidance: This is for you who initially do not need too much help and who are relatively confident that you will be able to carry out a part yourself. The stylist will go through the home with you and tell you what you should remove and what you should prepare for the photo.
 

Partial styling: A partial styling is suitable for those who have large pieces of furniture such as sofas, dining tables, beds, etc., but lack the details. These include cushions, plants, lamps, carpets and so on. In this case, the stylist will come to your home for an inspection and tell you/give you a list afterwards of things that should be cleared away and possibly moved before the stylist returns with his things and styles the home ready for photography.

Full styling: This is a full styling of a completely empty home. Here, the stylist will bring all large furniture and decorate down to the smallest detail. Common to the services above is that the stylist will also be able to help you choose colors if you are going to paint and in most cases they will also be able to make suggestions if there are other larger things that should be fixed.
