What Buyers Want To See When They Walk Into A Room

When a buyer views your property, they're likely to visit each room and look around. Their imagination is turned on high. Often, within just a few moments in a space, they'll form an impression - ideally, a positive one! 

So, how do you ensure each room shows well? Here's what buyers want to see: 

1. Space. Buyers will often mentally fit their furniture into a room when they see it. So, make sure each room is uncluttered and staged in a way that showcases its spaciousness. 

2. Functionality. Buyers want to see the room for what it is. So, if it's a bedroom, but you've turned it into an exercise room, it might become a distraction to buyers. Consider restoring the room to its original purpose. 

3. Themselves. Buyers want to imagine the room is part of their home, not yours. They want to see themselves in it. That's why it's smart to depersonalize the space as much as possible. For example. replace the family picture on the wall with a landscape print. 

Anticipating how buyers will view each room will help you stage your property effectively.

GTA REALTORS Release February 2025 Stats

Home buyers continued to benefit from substantial choice in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) resale market in February 2025. Home sales last month were down in comparison to the same period last year, while listing inventory remained high, providing substantial negotiating power for homebuyers. “Many households in the GTA are eager to purchase a home, but current mortgage rates make it difficult for the average household income to comfortably cover monthly payments on a typical property. Fortunately, we anticipate a decline in borrowing costs in the coming months, which should improve affordability,” said TRREB President Elechia Barry-Sproule. “On top of lingering affordability concerns, home buyers have arguably become less confident in the economy. Uncertainty about our trade relationship with the United States has likely prompted some households to take a wait and see attitude towards buying a home.
