Another staging home sold and closed – 5326 Lanyard Ct, Winter Park
July 1, 2015 Staging

This West Winter Park home sold after 2 days on the market and closed within a month. Multiple offers and a full price contract put a smile on the owners face. The staging by www.idesigntosell.com featured warm neutral tones to perfectly accompany the nice new wood floors and accent the open space. The small window over the master bed asked for some kind of treatment. Helen chose some iron ornaments to filter the light a bit and give the back wall some architectural interest. The dining space received some vintage looking mirrors to center the table and expand the visuals. It was important to define the different area in the open space so buyers could envision how the room could be furnished. To anchor the separate areas Helen defined separate spaces with area rugs. There is a dining area, the living room and a sitting area in front of the sliding glass doors. One open room with multiple use spaces. The goal was to show visitors how spacious but at the same time versatile a great room can be. While many central Florida homes have formal areas, buyers demand for these little used spaces has declined in recent years. Large open kitchens and a spacious natural flowing floor plan seem to be on the hit list of most homebuyers. The only challenge is to demonstrate the potential of an open living room. This demonstration seemed to have left a lasting impression with the audience. About half of the buyers who toured the property made an offer. The property closed at the top end of the price bracket of comparable sales. Very few homes in the neighborhood sold anywhere near this price. This house flip went quite well for the real estate investor and the hunt for the next opportunity is on.
