Redesign is a home staging technique that works like a “facelift” for a room before a house goes on the market. Redesign is also beneficial for home owners wanting to freshen a existing space without a costly remodel. Redesign might include such things as painting, changing hardware, replacing light fixtures, rearranging furniture, replacing window treatments and adding accessories. Where interior design usually starts from scratch, redesign usually uses most of what the client already has. When used in combination with proper staging of a home, a redesign can bring home sellers a faster sale and 10-17% more money.
