It’s quite possible that your expired listing is still on the market because your buyers aren’t sure if they can live in such a small space. Maybe they’re downsizing and unsure of what furniture will fit or maybe they just don’t know how to utilize the space best. In order to get some offers on your listing, you need to show your space is versatile and has enough space to hold what is necessary.
No Closet, No Problem
A fair amount of studio condos lack a clothes closet, but don’t let this be a setback for a selling feature! Use this opportunity to showcase your capsule wardrobe and store your clothes out in the open. All you really need is a dresser and a standing clothes rack, both of which do not take much space. A benefit of a smaller closet also means more frequent laundry which means a cleaner space without dirty clothes piling up.
Downsize on Kitchen Gadgets
How many knives do you actually need? Purge kitchen gadgets that take up more space and are used less frequently. Invest in items that serve multiple purposes so that your limited cabinet space is not going to waste.
Choose Versatile Furniture
Consider a sofa with storage underneath or a dining table that can double as an office workspace. Having a place to put larger items or blankets will be extremely helpful while keeping them out of sight makes the space more functional. Additionally, a dining table, such as a high top of some sorts, can be great because it provides a space to eat and gather with friends while also doubling as a work desk or a standing work desk (who doesn’t love a standing desk?).
