Home Staging 101: Photo Renderings

By now, you probably know that the most effective aspect of home staging is its ability to allow the buyer to visualize himself or herself in your home. If they can virtually “move in,” they will be more likely to make an offer. But did you know that photo renderings can—in many cases—do the same thing for you and for the buyer?

Photo renderings visually demonstrate how a home will look with specifically requested modifications, and they can be a great tool for you as you sell your home. As a seller, renderings can show you how your home will look once it is staged before you invest in staging. For example, if you are wondering how much value will be added to your home if you redo your kitchen cabinets or fix your landscaping, a photo rendering can get you a visual of the results before you commit to the work and expense. Renderings can also show prospective buyers the full potential of a home tailored to their specific tastes and desires.
