It:
Increases the selling price of your home.
Decreases the time your house is on the market.
Professionally staged homes, on average, sell for 6-10% more
and have a 50% shorter stay on the market
than homes presented by homeowners or agents alone.
Increases buyer traffic and offer potential. Research shows us that 75% of buyers see a home online and the MLS pictures have a big influence on their decision to view a house or not. Society's obsession with programming like HGTV works in your favor for this endeavor. People are interested in seeing a house once it is staged - and they tell their friends about what they seen. And those friends come to see, and then they tell their friends...
Gives the buyer a vision of what it would be like to live in the home.
"Be the Joneses" isn't just a tag line - it's my mission. I use your house to set the stage for a lifestyle that buyers want to have. And we want them to know they just need to buy your house to live it!
It’s affordable. It is technically free, as statistics from the Real Estate Staging Association show home staging with a 300% return on investment. The average house can be fully decluttered and staged for under $1,500. If your home is selling for $300,000, that is about 1/2 of 1% of the selling price. You can’t get much more affordable than that. And the cost of home staging is always far less than the first price reduction will be if your unstaged home doesn’t generate offers.
