Get it Styled and Get it Sold!
Feb 14th
OK , so the weather in Sydney isn’t the best for Summer and our northern and southern neighbours may also be experiencing interesting weather cycles however daily life goes on!
We often read less than positive stories in the media each day however the fact remains that people are still selling and people are still buying.
Although the interest rates have gone up slightly, the fixed rates have remained stable or dropped. This provides people with stability for the next 3,4 or 5 years depending on their term.
The property styling industry is seeing a renewed energy as the year starts to move on.
Good properties in good areas will always sell however it is up to the owner and agent to make sure that they sell for the best possible return.
Valiant Furniture Hire and Valiant Hire Property Styling are two of the best ways to ensure that your property is seen in its best possible light. It is an investment that will help you get the best possible result. Remember, your property is up against others that have been styled!
If you don’t style, there is a good chance that your house will be slower to sell or that you will attract a lower price than the competition.
Homes are still purchased with emotion. You have to create the dream, sell the lifestyle as well as the property.
All you need to do is have a look around and see what else is on the market, walk into the other properties, see how they feel. Ask yourself, does my property feel this good ?
It is amazing what a good clean and tidy, a coat of fresh paint and professional property styling can do.
Whether you are an agent or an owner, you should look into property styling.
Give your property the edge it needs in this market, Get it Styled and Get it Sold !
Science behind the Chair
Jan 16th
Every day most of us rest our behinds on an office chair of some description. I would guess that most of us don’t give a second thought to what went into the making of it.
Even after all these years of manufacturing, the research and development still continues.
One of our popular lines at Valiant Hire, the Zody by Haworth, can be seen in the attached video.( It isn’t a long video so it won’t take too much time, but it is worth watching to understand just some of the effort that goes into making these comfortable chairs.)
Perhaps you should hire one for a while and see how different you feel after using a great chair.
Short or long term, we can help you out in Sydney,Brisbane and Melbourne (and of course the surrounding areas).
And it starts all over again…

Well it appears that the Christmas holidays are all but over for most of the workforce. Phones are ringing and the email inbox is starting expand again. (If you are lucky enough to still be on holidays – we envy you )
A lot of Property Styling jobs have gone out this week as people prepare for the summer selling period.
This is encouraging not only for us at Valiant Hire but also for our friends in the Real Estate sector. There are still some amazing properties out there and when shown to their full potential with home staging or property styling they are commanding fair and decent prices.
If you are thinking of putting your property on the market make sure you have a chat to one of our friendly teams in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane who will be able to offer you a package deal that will help you achieve your sales goal.
Have a look at some of the recent styling in Melbourne by Valiant Hire in the video below.
Display Village Styling the Valiant Hire way !
Nov 18th
We know that you are aware of our Property Styling services however you might not know that we also furnish many of the Display Villages that you have seen. Display furniture is an important part of a home builder’s marketing plan.
The challenge is to have the property appealing for a broad target market. Our designers meet with the builders and discuss in depth the needs of their customers and the styles of furniture that would best suit the market.
Valiant Hire has been providing quality furniture hire for these long term customers for many years now and is also able to build custom packages to really make each display home stand out from the crowd.
There is a sneak peak at an upcoming village below. Make sure you keep an eye on future blog posts when we release the next houses and their pictures.
Real Furniture works for Styling
Oct 6th
You may have seen recent articles about using virtual furniture for marketing of properties, however you need to ask yourself why you are thinking about furnishing in the first place.
Property Styling is all about creating a look and feel that shows your property in it’s best possible light. You want that bond between the potential new owner and your property, they need to feel and see themselves living there.
It is about texture, feel, dimension – none of which is possible using virtual images alone.
Your potential buyer needs to see the space for real and see the furniture in place to let them understand how the property flows between rooms, so they can image their new lives.
Imagine the disappointment if they have seen a furnished property online and then turn up to the inspection and it is totally empty – no character – no bonding – no connection.
There are many factors to consider, however remember, there are some things that a computer can’t replace and feelings are definitely in that category. People will fight for a property if they have become emotionally attached – and that is a benefit of a professionally styled home.
Regardless of the property size – Property Styling works! Check this video of a few recent inner city properties. They aren’t huge in floor space , but they are enormous in style and character !
