Real Estate with Ruben: Home Staging Should Include the Male ...

?????????

??????????? Professional home stagers consult with homeowners on ways to sell their homes quickly and for the most money possible, but often lost in the design process is the fact that men are involved in buying decisions as well.

?

??????????? When having your home staged, it?s important to remember to appeal to both sexes and do some things that will pique a man?s interest just as much as a woman?s.

?

??????????? Professional stagers take into account buyer demographics, buying psychology, and utilize design elements in planning out the rooms and space and the use of lighting and its effect on the space. Don?t be afraid to let them know if the home is leaning too far on the woman?s side.

?

??????????? Women tend to look for cozier settings or rooms that facilitate intimate conversations, while males gravitate toward rooms with gadgets, televisions and electronics.

?

??????????? Open spaces and higher ceilings are also a draw for men as psychologically they have a larger sense of personal space. Professional stagers with men in mind try to create rooms where a man can feel as if he can walk through the house easily without stepping around all sorts of furniture.????

???

??????????? When it comes to men, the garage and yard tend to be high up on the priority list, so it?s important to get these areas as perfect as possible.

?

??????????? Garages that have painted walls, clean floors and enough storage for various male-oriented hobbies will impress. Shelf space is almost always looked at as a good thing here and a place to hang tools or a workbench would make a fine addition to attract male buyers. And remember, an empty garage looks much bigger than one with a car parked in it.

?

??????????? With the yard, showcasing a well-maintained lawn will help sell the male. Thick, healthy grass, minimal bushes to trim and easy to clean garden beds will meet the landscaping criterion the male buyer looks for.

?

??????????? Appealing to both sexes when staging and selling a home requires an emotional investment that will pay off in the end for all parties, just don?t forget that men need a connection, too.
