Your Fall Staging Checklist

How long has your home been on the market? If you staged your home and listed it back in the spring or summer, the changing season means it's time to look at your staging strategies through fresh eyes. Buyers are searching for a place that feels like home today, so homes with seasonal staging strategies tend to generate greater interest and sell more quickly. 


Fall Staging - A Quick Overview

When the weather turns cooler, buyers are looking for a home where they can embrace the comfortable coziness that comes with the cooling temperatures. Consequently, staging your home for fall is all about creating a warm and inviting atmosphere to make your buyers feel instantly at home. The team at Devine & Associates Real Estate is here to help keep your staging efforts current with these can't-miss autumn staging ideas. 

Fall Staging - 13 Tips

1.  Place pumpkins on your front porch.

2.  Line your driveway with mums.

3.  Decorate your table with orange and red candles.

4.  Set out orange, red, or yellow pillows on your furniture.

5.  Turn on more lamps to off-set the shorter daylight hours.

6.  Toss some warm, fuzzy blankets on your chairs and couches.

7.  Rake your yard regularly to keep it clear of fallen leaves.

8.  Fill vases with yellow, red, and orange flowers.

9.  Burn cinnamon, pumpkin spice, or apple pie scented candles or Scentsys.

10.  Turn on your gas stoves and/or fireplaces (if you have one).

11.  Put dark-colored sheets, comforters, and quilts on your beds.

12.  Hang an autumn-themed wreath on your front door.

13.  Display miniature pumpkins and gourds on your tables and counters tops.

Happy Staging!

By adopting some of these strategies, you will be well on your way towards creating a warm, welcoming environment that your buyers will love. Use these tips sparingly, however; you don't want to fill your house with so many autumn and/or Halloween knickknacks that you lose the interest of some prospective buyers!
