Remember the last time you visited an upscale furniture showroom? The furniture and fixtures on display probably looked great. The colours and textures jumped out at you.
Of course, the quality of the products has a lot to do with how appealing they look when on display. But smart retailers know that proper lighting is key to making those products look their best.
What does this have to do with selling your home quickly, and for the best price?
When preparing your home for sale, review the lighting in each room and make sure the space is sufficiently lit. You want the lighting to be strong enough to prevent dark or shadowy areas, yet not so strong that it’s uncomfortable for the eyes.
Pay particular attention to traditionally dark areas, such as the garage and closets. Make sure those areas are bright too.
If you have a viewing scheduled during the day, take advantage of natural light through windows. Open the curtains!
Finally, one of the most important areas is the foyer. Always make sure the entrance has sufficient lighting.
If you are not thinking about selling these lighting tips might just have you enjoy your existing home that much more!
