We’ve all heard the basic rules of staging your home for sale: Declutter your tschotchkes, pack up personal photos and artifacts, etc. But what are the secret tricks home stagers use, that they don’t want you to know about? Home Staging expert Beth DeLozier-Hayes reveals her money saving strategies to getting your home all dressed up for the ball without it costing you an arm and a leg.
The Sniff Test

You know the feeling, you have put all of your office supplies out, neatened up your small desk or table, rolled up your sleeves (either literally or figuratively) and just as you're about to start that long delayed project, your spouse yells out that you had better take the kitchen garbage out illico presto or she will be filing for divorce on the spot!

A home office can be considered the heart of many homes, these days. With the economy as it is, as many people as possible are trying to save money on commuting costs, and with the every-increasing popularity of the Internet and the work and income being generated from it, home offices are coming to the forefront.

But think twice before you take that step, because selling during the holidays - while tricky - can have some advantages, if you do it right.
First off, if you’re planning on having a number of holiday entertaining events at your home, or it’s an absolute must that you participate in your neighborhood’s extreme-decorating-extravaganza, this might not be the best time to sell.
