4 Ways to Make Your Vacant Lakeland Sandpiper Home For Sale Appealing
If you are selling a vacant Lakeland Sandpiper home, it has its benefits as
well as challenges. For one, you don’t have to worry about negotiating move
out versus move in dates since the buyers can move in any time after closing.
4 Ways to Make Your Vacant Lakeland Sandpiper Home For Sale Appealing
On the other hand, selling a vacant home has some drawbacks. When prospective buyers view
photos of vacant homes online, they have a hard time visualizing how the room is uses, the size of
the room, and the actual layout of the home.
Vacant homes also give buyers an impression that a home may have been on the market for so long
because the owners have already moved or that there may be something wrong with the home and
this may be the reason why some buyers might skip vacant homes. You may have a perfectly valid
reason for moving like a job change, for example, but buyers wouldn’t have a way to know that.
4 Ways to Make Your Vacant Lakeland Sandpiper Home For Sale Appealing
Buyers usually make higher offers on furnished or occupied homes. Buyers who enter vacant homes
struggle in visualizing their own stuff occupying the rooms.
There are ways to stage a vacant home to still make it appealing to buyers. Here are a few tips”
4 Ways to Make Your Vacant Lakeland Sandpiper Home For Sale Appealing
● Virtual Staging
For your online Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale’s photos, you could use computer-generated
furnishings and accessories in the vacant rooms. There are some companies who offer virtual staging
services for a fee, but the catch is you have to disclose in advertising that the rooms in your photos
have been virtually staged.

● Furniture Rental
There are companies who offer furniture rental packages, usually for 3 types of rooms (living room,
dining room, and master bedroom), complete with accessories.
Before you select a furniture rental company, make sure to check out different companies and their
terms since some companies will make you enter into a monthly lease agreement with a 3-month
minimum.

● Consignment Furniture
You can go to a consignment furniture store and buy some inexpensive furniture to make the house
look furnished. You could also offer them to your buyers upon purchase of the Lakeland Sandpiper
home for sale. Note that you cannot add the cost of furniture to the sale price of your home and
you are doing this purely as an incentive for buyers. This incentive makes your home more
attractive especially to first-time home buyers who start with little or nothing.

● Closeout Furniture
This is a similar idea to consignment furniture, but you are buying brand new furniture from the
store. Some stores offer discounted floor samples at closeout prices. For a budget of $1,500, you
may already be able to purchase living and dining room furniture. That would definitely cost you
less than a price reduction on your home for sale.
Any of these 4 options can greatly enhance your vacant Lakeland Sandpiper home for sale and make
it more appealing to prospective buyers. It is better to apply any of these options sooner rather
than later so your home won’t stay on the market too long. For more home staging tips, visit http:
