“In my experience, properties that have been styled by a professional stylist receive the highest level of online engagement and initial interest prior to inspection,” Mr Wilson said.
“This is due to a number of factors. The photographs are much more appealing than a cluttered apartment or house with old furnishing, it shows the potential buyer that it is essentially ready to move in and presents them with an aspirational living scenario.”
While a professional stylist is recommended for their expert knowledge on choosing the right look to suit your home and target demographic, a DIY fix can also make a noticeable difference.
Justine Wilson, Principal Stylist and Director of Vault Interiors, says there are a few simple steps to styling: a new coat of paint, getting rid of clutter, fresh flowers and colourful cushions, a tidy front lawn, and fixing up the floors.
