Styling before the tour
How is the styling before the photoshoot different from the styling before the tour? Should the stylist be on site before the tour starts? Does a little touch-up before the house tour make a difference? A lot of people believe that styling a few days prior to the photography is enough. What they don’t realise is that the styling inventory is only for the photoshoot day and the house tour days. This means that all the rented inventory has to be returned in the same condition as it was upon delivery. Otherwise one will incur penalty fees. Some clients choose to pack away all the inventory after the photography on site. So the inventory is safely stored away until it’s time for the tours. A lot can happen before the tour days, especially in a household with small children. It’s not such a bad idea to have the stylist on site before the first tour, who can then check the changes made and help to rectify anything you forgot when placing back the furniture and decor.
Styling pre-tours differs from styling before the photography as it focuses on the physical movement, and meeting of potential buyers on site. A home styling or staging pre tour, makes it easier for the agent preparing to register every visitor, and other necessary arrangements with the bidding process. We don’t think it’s difficult to style for your house tour, since we have many years of experience and thanks to our partnerships with realtors we know exactly what prospective buyers want. After visiting a property, we can easily see what is needed and the right positioning. For example if there is a balcony then we see to it that there is an eye catching decor leading the prospects to the lovely atmosphere outdoors. Especially as the balcony has exponential potential to increase the value of the property.
Each home is unique and presenting it the right way requires a tailored approach. That’s why we always recommend that you don’t bargain away our offer of having a certified home stylist on site before the first touring of your property takes place. When on site, we exchange wilted flowers and plants for fresh ones. We take away some decor that mainly favoures the photographs. We also make sure the entire property looks inviting and perfect, as only a home stylist could.
Do you think it’s difficult to style a property pre tours? Call us, we are certified home stylists that are more than happy to get back to you with a complimentary styling proposal.
Go with peace and live with love and light,
