Staging Makes all the Difference

This home was due to hit the real estate market in a few days when the agent made an SOS call to me. This no budget transformation took this room from Beetlejuice’s Batchelor Pad to Perfectly Acceptable MLS Listing in one day, and the home sold in no time.

I wish I hadn’t taken the girly posters down before taking photos. They really completed the Before look. A few hours was enough for a quick coat of paint and replacing the lone weight bench with a “bed.” I’m not proud of it, y’all, but this is a fake bed made of laundry baskets and a comforter set I had on hand that helps make the jailhouse striped bathroom look more intentional. A few linens and a pop of color soften the bathroom, because we had to make these stripes work, and make a woman feel like she could possibly live here. This was a serious scramble-before-the-photographer-gets -here moment.
