bedrooms are the top selling

[luv2flip]

After curb appeal and kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms are the top selling features of a home. Why? This room needs to be the buyer’s personal oasis from day-to-day life. Whether it’s for parents of young children, a single professional or a retired couple, bedrooms are where they’ll go to unwind. If the bedroom doesn’t suit them, the sale is off!

So how do stagers help home owners create bedrooms that feel like stepping into a luxury hotel? What tricks can make a small bedroom look bigger, a dark bedroom more inviting and a boring bedroom more stylish?

Making the Room Spacious

Small homes and condos have their charm, but often lack a large bedroom. If you’re short on space you can make several adjustments to your furniture arrangement to open up your room.

First consider removing extra dressers. As long as there is a closet, the buyer will not readily notice the absence of a dresser. This can quickly open up valuable floor space, even though it means storing some clothing in another location or packing it away.

Use smaller side tables and remove all clutter from the tops of remaining dressers, armoires and tables. Clutter makes spaces look smaller and crowded, so computers, laundry and paperwork should also be moved or packed away.

That is all very good advice!!! Clutter does make a room look smaller. Another thing you can do is put lots of mirrors on walls, they always make a room look bigger.

One thing we needed in this family are large bedrooms. If this house wouldnt have had the larger bedrooms then we wouldnt be living here now.

Most of the rooms only have a small closet, though because of the size of each room, dressers can be used instead.

Another thing we liked was the fact that even though this is a three bedroom home there were three bathrooms when we bought it. That was a good thing for us.

Of course now we have taken one of the bathrooms out because it was not needed and in an odd place. Two is just fine for all of us.
