If you are a freelance home stager or a home stager operating his business, chances are there are many competitors in the realty market. If you are a beginner, then you might have a hard time looking for clients to hire you. But never worry, because you can easily present before and after home staging photos to get you more customers and to make your name among others.
Before and after home staging photos is the best way to showcase your abilities as a home stager to other home owners. These photos are proof that you can make fantastic rooms so the owners can see the house to the buyers. If you have good photos, then you might have more clients willing to hire you.
To get before and after photos, you must have a camera and the owner's permission to take pictures. You must have the right angle on where you take the picture so it really highlights the change of the appearance of the room before and after the staging process. Never take a picture of the front side of the house because you must evade the privacy of the new owner, unless he allowed you to do so.

QUESTION:
What is involved in "staging" my home for the Real Estate Market?
Staging a home for the market will most certainly guarantee you a quicker sell. A home that is "staged" stands out amongst all others. Stat's prove across the country that a properly staged home will sell at the asking price and sometimes above. If you have your home appraised after all repairs, updates and staging is completed you may well get a higher appraisal value on the home.If you are looking to "stage" your home on your own we suggest that you get professional advise from a professional home stager so that you are certain that your home is show ready. We at Home Stages Designs offer many Home Staging ebooks to assist the do-it-yourselfers out there. When following the lead of a professional you can rest assured that your home is going to sell quicker than all others that are not show ready. Now days, potential buyers expect to purchase homes that are ready to move into and that they do not have to plunk alot of money into at the onset of the purchase. These are the buyers that will give you your asking price without hesitation.

ANSWER:
clear it out as much as possible.. leaves more to the buyers imagination. Fix major blunders, paint dark small room a lighter color. Bake cookies or bread on show day so the smell fills the home.... just to name a few.

QUESTION:
What do I need to start my own Home Staging business?
Are there necessary certifications and/or training? What else do I need to know about this business? Any books that can be recommended? Websites? Thank you!-
ANSWER:
You need to know how to explain to people that their kids' art has to come off the fridge, and painting over the purple wall in the living room is well worth the money. Anyone can pack up people's stuff and clean off shelves and garages. Psychology and tact are the skills that are the hardest to master, especially when it comes to religious and/or ethnic themes and items. Negotiation skills will serve you well, and an understanding of different personality types, biases, and traditions.Connections with realtors will be almost mandatory. Work for free for 6-8 homes to get some experience and references if you do not already have a customer base that is easily reachable.

QUESTION:
which books do i get to home tutor a 13 year old :key stage 3?-
ANSWER:
you can learn online from this:::
Key Stage 3 Bitesize at www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks3bitesize
GCSE Bitesize at www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize
AS Guru at www.bbc.co.uk/education/asguru
BBC Learning Zone at www.bbc.co.uk/learningand by different books i reccomend WHSmith because they do a big big selection of books, i go with Letts because they provide ample revision and they are quite sarcastic and funny along the way which keep us children entertained while we are doing some kind of revision. and also buy the level that is reccomended for him
e.g. level 4-6 or 5-7 or 7-8.and also the course sheet you get provided with make sure all the revision stuff is in that particular book because there are different books available such as foundation/higher maths if you are doing gcse.
good luck
