The need for proper furniture arrangement when selling a house can never be over-emphasized.
In order to understand why it is important to have the furniture in a house you are selling well arranged before bringing in potential buyers, you would just need to look at the numerous instances where buyers have rejected otherwise good houses simply on account of furniture arrangement therein.
The houses being rejected could be pretty much be good houses in superb condition but the buyer, on seeing the haphazard furniture arrangement therein, gets the feeling that t is a bad deal they are being pushed into and they request to be allowed out.
Now in order to understand where all this comes from, it would be important to be cognizant of the basics of house-buyer psychology.
And in order to be in a position to understand the basis of that house-buyer psychology, it would be important to understand that for most people, a house purchase is a major life purchase.
Indeed, according to most people's earnings, it is a purchase that they will probably have to pay for many years to come, or a purchase they are likely to have been saving for for many years before.
As such it is a purchase they simply cannot afford to get wrong.
In circumstances like those, the fear of getting it wrong often turns out to be stronger than the desire to get it right.
Their whole focus is now turned to ensuring that they don't get it wrong.
What we end up with, then, is a situation where they are looking for any signs that what they are getting onto could be a bad deal.
In other words, they are now looking for a reason not to buy the house (rather than a reason why they should buy it).
And poor furniture arrangement in the house is just one such reason.
Of course, the house buyer will be bright enough to know that furniture-arrangement is temporary.
But just the haphazardness of it all will tend to set the subconscious bells ringing; so that the rejection of a house on the basis of the furniture arrangement therein tends to be at a subconscious level, rather than on a conscious level.
So, what is the way forward? Well, thing is, if you are considering selling a house, and you want it to move quickly (and at a good price), you would be well advised to invest time in proper furniture arrangement.
Proper furniture arrangement can have a very huge impact on how fast the house gets a buyer, and at what price it gets bought at.
It is not even unheard of potential house sellers who are cognizant of these facts engaging the temporary services of an interior designer, to help them get their furniture arrangement right, in anticipation for putting up a house for sale.
Ultimately, proper furniture-arrangement might seem like a small matter, but the truth is that it can have a huge impact on a house sale.
You simply can't afford to get it wrong.
