STAGING FAQ'S...
Why
stage?
A staged
home sells up to 50% faster than an unstaged home and often
for 6% to 10% more than a similar unstaged home.
Is
staging worth the cost?
An
investment in staging can shorten the time a home sits on
the market and eliminate the need to reduce the price of a
home. That’s how it pays for itself. This is even truer with
vacant homes. By stimulating the potential buyer’s
imagination with furnishings and accessories instead of
empty rooms, the salability of a home is increased tenfold.
Bottom line, a stage home will sell up to 50% faster than an
unstaged one and often at a 6% to 10% higher price.
Why
can’t I stage my home myself?
Home
sellers decorate and furnish their homes to suit their own
unique tastes. Yet what looks wonderful to them may be
unappealing to another person. Some home sellers can stage
their own homes successfully. However, most sellers are
emotionally attached to their homes and cannot disengage to
see their home through “buyer’s eyes”. An objective
viewpoint is required to find flaws and disguise them
effectively while highlighting the virtues for prospective
buyers.
