Your Auckland Apartment Staging Advice

If you ever wondered if the cost of Auckland apartment staging was worth it, it is. Our clients will tell you the same. When selling your apartment, you need to present it in a way that attracts the right kind of buyers; those who are ready to buy an apartment just like yours. That requires you to do highlight the apartment’s positives, help buyers to picture themselves living there and make it so attractive that buyers can’t keep away. In other words, you need to stage your apartment, and that’s where we come in.

What Are My Auckland Apartment Staging Options?

Apartment home staging is about creating that all important positive first impression for buyers. It’s also about helping the buyer visualise themselves living there. As interior designers and stylists, we regularly assist our clients to maximise the potential of their apartment when selling it. Here are a few of our suggestions to consider before you place your apartment on the market:

  • Use staged furniture – you may love your comfy three-seater couch, and it’s even a great neutral colour. But did you notice that it takes up way too much space in the living room? A home stager can select and arrange furniture to showcase your apartment in the best possible way, maximising space, features and light.

  • Depersonalise all spaces – pack up those family photos and personalised items as buyers don’t want to see you living in their new home. This also involves removing items which reflect your personality, such as those movie posters and wall decals too. Buyers will also look inside wardrobes and any inbuilt storage, so it would be a good idea to remove all but the essentials.

  • Declutter all areas – in most Auckland apartments, space is limited. The more items you have in your apartment, the smaller it looks. Call up the removers to collect excess furniture, or even better, have them pack it all and use a furniture package styled by us specifically for your apartment – give us a call!

  • Redecorate – we’re not talking a full construction site project, but rather updating the décor. This could include repainting walls a neutral colour, replacing window dressings, adding a new rug and some indoor plants. If you have a small balcony or patio, remember to stage this outdoor area too.

Check out our work

We were a bit apprehensive about staging our place because we have seen some home staging that we wouldn’t have wanted to pay for, but we were really thrilled with Gaby’s work. She clearly has a great eye for interior design, and her room set ups were really inviting and stylish. As well as the fact that Gaby is great to deal with. We would be happy to recommend her and would definitely use her again if the need arose.
