Keep Living Room Theme Neutral
Home staging involves complete interior designing overhaul because you need to decorate your house, epically the living room with a total neutral appeal, watching which a buyer could well imagine that how he/she would be decorating it after purchasing it.

On the other hand, if you add a unique element, it might bring a personalized effect, which makes no sense to a buyer.
Remove Excessive Items
Whenever a buyer plans to visit a house, the things he/she considers, is overall area and space available and constructional design of a house. If your house is too cluttered or overloaded with furniture and decorative items, then making an accurate analysis of the available area becomes difficult because buyers can’t picture themselves in this jumbled interior. Thus, there is a need to give maximum exposure to the available space by organizing things properly and keeping their number to the minimum.
Keep an Overall Compatibility
The furniture, upholstery, curtains, rugs and paint color—everything should have a compatibility with each other and also with the overall interior of a house, so that it could easily lead a visitor’s eyes from one point to another. An imbalance interior management would instead create a scattered appeal, which distracts a buyer. For instance, the colors of curtains should be matching with the upholstery and the rugs placed on the floor should also be selected accordingly.

Another important aspect is to consider the requirements of modern house designs in Pakistan, as a buyer would always love to purchase an up-to-dated house.
