PODS® Local Helps Homeowners Sell Homes for More

VENTURA, Calif. - April 6, 2022 - PRLog -- Home staging continues to save homeowners time and generate more money from a sale than homes that are not staged. According to a 2021 survey by The National Association of Realtors®, 41% of real estate agents said staging a home can increase the value of offers by up to 10%. PODS Local offers tips and solutions to help homeowners sell their homes quickly and for higher closing prices.

Follow these four home-staging tips:

Clean Your Home – Hire a professional cleaning service to give your home a proper "deep cleaning." Buyers are looking for a fresh start and want to see the possibility in your home.

Remove Your Personal Items – Family pictures make your house feel like your home. Buyers want it to feel like theirs. Remove overly personal items to help buyers look at your space with clear eyes.

Upgrade Your Furniture – Over time, furniture can fall out of style and ends up looking dated and worn. Renting new furniture can help give your home a sleek and modern look.

Create a Light and Airy Feel – Open the blinds, let in natural light, and declutter to create a warm, spacious, and open environment that is more inviting to buyers.

Here's how PODS Local can help you with the home-staging process:

• PODS Can Store Your Furniture – If you decide to stage your home with new furniture, you can store all of your furnishings in a PODS container while you're showing your home.  
• PODS Provides Packing and Loading Assistance – Many sellers don't have time to clear out their old furnishings or the ability to perform heavy lifts. PODS has an extensive network of local providers and can arrange for the packing and moving assistance you need.    
• PODS Works with Your Schedule – PODS can deliver a storage container right to your home so you can clear out your belongings at your own pace. They also offer month-to-month storage, so if your home sells before your next home is ready, you can easily renew your storage agreement.          
• PODS Delivers to Your Next Destination – Once you've cleared your belongings out of your old home, PODS can store them at one of their secure facilities and deliver them to your next destination, making it easy to begin making your new house your home.
