The Benefits of Home Staging
Whether the housing market is slow or booming, bidding wars can happen when potential buyers feel emotionally connected to a home. Buyers who feel this attachment will want to close the deal. The staged house will pull at their heartstrings and THAT staged home will sell at a higher price and much quicker than those that aren't staged. What can be more disappointing than not getting full value for your home?!
Professionally Staged Properties:
- Look better than other homes on the market
- Spend 90% less time on the market
- Typically sell for more money
- Attract more online shoppers
- Set the standard for comparison shopping
- Receive more foot traffic
- Are viewed by buyers as well maintained and move-in ready
- Have fewer reasons for buyers to offer less money
- Target the right customer
- Create that WOW! factor
Optimal Returns
Although price range, location and market conditions are primary influences when selling a home, they are also factors that you cannot change. What you can change however, is how well your home shows. If it shows well, your house will sell before those of your competitors. Statistics show that a well staged home will sell up to 80% faster… at or above the asking price! How? By investing up to 3% (of the asking price) into prepping your property... and home staging plays a small part in that investment.
Professional home staging is becoming the 'norm' in todays real estate market, as it's getting tougher to keep up with ones competition. Realtors would like nothing more than to list a house, sell it quickly, and move on to the next one. Homeowners would like nothing less than to get top dollar for their homes... AND buyers expect to be WOW-ed!
FACT : The cost of home staging will be substantially less than the cost of your first price reduction.
With this in mind, can you really afford not to stage your home?

Vacant Home Staging
A vacant house is like a blank canvas, but have you ever taken a walk through one? There's not a lot to look at except for the obvious flaws, and it's difficult to imagine one's own furniture in an empty space. This confuses the prospective buyer, who will stress over furniture placement, and then walk away. You, as the seller, should want them to linger a while… get a feel for the place, and picture themselves living there.
