Home staging helps create the “Goldilocks Effect”. While other houses may seem too old, too small, or out of style, the professionally staged home will feel “Just Right”.
Staged homes photograph better, show better, and sell better.
Have your home staged to:
- Add warmth and charm, allowing buyers to see your house as a home, not just another property
- Help buyers to visualize a life style and see themselves living in the home
- Add interest (blank walls and empty rooms don’t tell much of a story)
- Draw buyers’ attention the best elements of the house and away from minor imperfections
- Clarify a potentially confusing floor plan or room
- Show off the potential of a home
- Set the house apart from other listings
- Actively engaged the buyer in the house. Create places to stop, sit down, and contemplate their new life in the house
In the real estate market, most impressions are made in the initial thirty days of a listing. The best time to stage a home is before those first impressions happen. Before photos, fliers, virtual tours, or any marketing materials are generated. Before brokers’ tours and open houses. Before a listing gets stale and too much time on the market makes a price reduction the only recourse. The price of staging a home, vacant or occupied, is only a fraction of what it can cost in a price reduction.
