When Red Barrinuevo is done staging your house, you may be tempted to take the for sale sign off the lawn and stay. But alas, the goal is not to fall in love with your old house but rather to sell it faster — and for top dollar.

The Principal Designer of REDESIGN4MORE in Toronto did just that with this luxury suite in the Four Seasons Residences in Yorkville, listed for over $2 million. Prior to working his magic, the condo had been sitting on the market, deterring homebuyers with oversized, dated furniture that didn’t match the price point. By decluttering and introducing modern, bright furniture and decor Barrinuevo was able to help buyers visualize their lives in the condo.

In this video, Barrinuevo shares 5 essential home staging tips. Follow his expert advice to elevate your interiors — whether you’re looking to sell or not.
