Our Specialty…Investor Property Staging
Beyond direct homeowner projects, Sherwood is a specialist in design, décor selection and final staging of investment properties in preparation for sale. It’s a proven fact that a house displayed with finishing touches and decorations to make the property feel like a “home,” can inspire buyers. This type of attention to detail brings a feeling of warmth to any property, and starts the decorating process for those new homeowners that would not otherwise have the expertise. Gone are the days when simple icebox-white or neutral palettes prove to be the best selling point.
While a homebuyer looks for property elements that are important to them such as a garage, screened patio or laundry room; a large part of their decision-making process in today’s flooded marketplace will be based on how the place makes them feel. Installation of custom décor and design makes a property truly stand out, yet can be done very economically. The average decorating and staging budget starts at around $1200 for a 3-bedroom 2-bath property. This option is very inexpensive when compared to the potential months of mortgage costs and maintenance that might be incurred if the property sits on the market unsold for any length of time because it lacks a competitive edge.
For Retailers
Big chain retailers spend millions of dollars to analyze traffic flow and get customer feedback to try to figure out why customers frequent (or don’t frequent) certain stores. Smaller retailers can benefit from Sherwood’s basic 90-minute location consultation services to discover how best to adjust their businesses using the décor and esthetic factors more to their benefit. This evaluation includes a point-for-point discussion about store elements that may be a hidden turn-off including:
Lighting
Traffic vs. energy flow
Line-of-sight benefactors and deterrents
Use of color and fabrics
Space & layout options
The goal of these evaluations is to maximize use of elements already available in the store, eliminate negative factors and increase customer comfort so that they will consistently return because they feel comfortable.
