The Impact of Interior Design in 2020: Importance of Interior Design When Listing a Home

One of the reasons I love working at Boulevard Realty is because of our one-of-a-kind ReDesign team that helps with everything from design to construction. The team includes Bill (our remarkably knowledgeable broker), Frank (our project manager and an architect in his own right), Brandon (Bill’s longtime licensed assistant and a builder himself), and Maria (our design coordinator who trained in Europe as an interior architect). It’s rare for a firm to have a team like this on staff and always available as a resource.

One excellent resource this team produces is our ReDesign blog, which keeps us up-to-date on design trends, both for the interior and exterior of homes. Maria recently gave the Boulevard agents a presentation on the impact of interior design in 2020, before breaking it out into a blog series on the ReDesign blog. There was a lot of good info in there so I wanted to share a few of the highlights from each of the topics, starting with the “Why is Interior Design Important When Listing a Home?” blog post.

INTERIOR DESIGN PROVIDES EFFICIENT USE OF SPACE

• Buyers will look at a home during a showing looking for clues on how to use the space more effectively.

• Confusion on how to use a certain room can cause buyers to look towards another property.

• Interior design can efficiently make rooms appear bigger or smaller.

• Decluttering? Leave only the furniture and accessories needed to communicate the purpose of the room.

INTERIOR DESIGN ADDS A FRESH APPROACH

• Taking time to spruce up can help generate more offers.

• Avoid making common decorating mistakes.

• A fresh coat of paint can go a long way…

• An existing home can look as good as new construction.

That's just the tip of the iceberg. I encourage you to check out the full ReDesign post here.
