Duluth, GA Home Stager Solves Problems, Atlanta, Suwanee

A few months ago I was called on to stage a cute little vacant townhome in Duluth.  As I previewed the property in order to bid on the project, I saw a potential problem that needed to be addressed through home staging.

Men and women tend to preview properties differently.  Women seem to notice things like appliances, kitchen layout and the garden tub while men typically have one question forefront on their minds: "Where does the TV go?"  For them, it's all about their electronics.  (I hope I've not offended either sex with this broad, general statement!)  In this home, I realized we had a problem, but being a home stager who solves problems, we quickly found a solution.

The entire right half of the downstairs was a large open space which was a combination sitting area on the front, family room with fireplace in the center and dining area to the back (see below).  The photo to the left is the front to back shot, while the photo to the right shows back to front.

While the most logical place to stage the plasma TV was above the mantle, the homeowner didn't want to put it there, as that area was not wired for TV and he didn't want to have to go to the trouble and expense to do it.  The wiring was actually in the front area on the wall opposite the fireplace.

So how did this home stager solve the problem?  Even though the wiring was on the back wall, we knew it could easily be extended to reach the front wall.  With the furniture & TV placement shown below, the family could sit in front of the fireplace and while viewing the TV or in the chaise (made for 2) in front of the TV and still enjoy the fireplace. 

The homeowners were happy, the agent was happy, and the next door neighbor ran back and forth between properties numerous times to stage her home exactly as we had done this one.  The townhome has since sold.  (Actually, BOTH of them!)
