How to choose the right property stylist

Today, most properties for sale in the Sydney metro area are styled to some degree. Whether it’s a declutter, furniture reshuffle or complete refurnish, in a competitive market, you have to ensure you’ll stand out (for the right reasons!). Some homeowners decide to DIY, others engage professional help, hoping that the right presentation will decrease their properties time on market and increase the final sale price. 

Investing in a good property stylist can yield 10 times the return on your investment, sometimes more, but how do you find the stylist that’s right for you.

A good property stylist will consider the style and the era of a property, the suburb it’s located and and it’s price bracket. Most importantly, they’ll take into account the type of buyer you’re targeting and tailor their styling to speak to them.

Focus

Ensure you choose a stylist who’s focused on attracting buyers and increasing your sale price. Yes, keeping up with current trends is also important, however, simply looking stylish and on-trend doesn’t always achieve results.

Intentions

Experienced stylists will always be happy to share their intentions for styling a property. They should be open to discussing what they have in mind for each room and have examples of properties they’ve previously styled.

Experience

It can take years to perfect styling practices and strategies. With experience comes long standing relationships with furniture, decor and art suppliers. At Spatial we have a huge warehouse where all our stock is housed and we own everything we use. An experienced stylist will also know how to deal with any issues that may arise onsite, quickly and professionally. They will be solution driven and have experience with properties of all shapes and sizes.

Research

Before committing to a stylist, check out their work on their website or social media channels. Ask to see examples of current styling installations so you can ensure their style and quality aligns with your own expectations.
