Before photos
- Declutter each room and store extra furniture off-site.
- Book a deep clean: kitchen, bathrooms, windows, baseboards, ceiling fans and light fixtures.
- Fix small visible issues first. See pre-listing repairs.
- Tidy the yard, trim shrubs and keep the lawn watered within City of Dallas watering rules.
Hiring a stager
- Ask whether the stager does a consultation only, partial staging with your furniture, or full staging with rented furniture.
- Get the rental period, delivery and pick-up dates in writing, and what happens if the listing runs longer.
- Ask who carries insurance for rented items while they’re in your home.
