4 Creative Ways to Land Your First Real Estate Listing
Listing your first house can take some time when you get into real estate. And we’re not talkin’ just weeks or months—it can take years!
When homeowners decide to put their property on the market, most do a little work to spruce up the place. Some might paint and declutter, while others go all out and hire a home stager.
On the flip side, certain bold homeowners take a DIY approach that often leaves real estate agents and potential buyers scratching their heads.
Think you’ve seen some decor that could’ve used a little work? You haven’t seen anything yet!
Take a look at these home staging fails that are more likely to garner big laughs rather than big offers.
If you’ve got buyers who are immersed in the potty training years, this arrangement looks ideal. For everyone else…not so much.
Of course, you want buyers to imagine themselves enjoying the house, but you don’t have to take it this far to help them visualize it.
These homeowners have a green thumb, we get it. But when people start to feel like they’re on safari rather than in a living room , things may have gone a bit too far.
Maybe these homeowners are trying to suggest that the closet is so spacious, you can stretch out and take a nap in there! Unfortunately, this comes off as more creepy than inviting. At least it isn’t Chuckie!.
Perhaps this owner was hoping buyers wouldn’t notice the unmade bed if they created a chair tower in the corner? Points for creativity.
Sure, not all furnishings need to match perfectly, but most people aim for complementary colors or patterns. These two don’t belong in the same era, let alone the same room!
Looks like this toilet is gettin’ hitched! When asked if they’ll love and cherish this bathroom, most buyers would probably say, “I don’t.”
…or as much as the frame cost at the store. Maybe they took their agent’s advice to “depersonalize” their home to a whole new level.
For the right buyer, a swimming pool can be a huge draw…but not when it’s filled with dirt. This looks like a wasted opportunity to make a splash.
Seating for all! That’s a lot of couch! A smaller sofa would probably make this room look a lot larger. Just sayin’.
