Staging WORKS!

"Staged Homes Sell Faster and for More Money !"

It's a proven fact that many people could have sold their homes for much more money than they did and in a shorter time period, if they had only "merchandised" or "Staged" their home properly for sale.

Staging is the process of temporarily redecorating a house to facilitate a buyer's purchase. It has been proven that in a sluggish market, homes will sell for between 7% and 17% more by staging it for sale. In a competitive market, where buyers get into bidding wars, the figures increase to between 20% and 50%.

Realtors have, for years, advised sellers on various techniques to help "sell their house" and make prospective buyers feel more comfortable and welcomed. Preparing a house for sale goes far beyond such obvious tips like picking up clutter, hiding dirty dishes in the dishwasher and burning scented candles that smell like apple pie!  

You need to make the architectural features of your home prominent to show well. Buyers don't need to be "sold" on your personal belongings and decorating choices.

"The way you live in your home, and the way we need to market and sell your house, are two very different things."

Depending on what is required, you might Stage® a home by simply rearranging the existing furniture and accessories to showcase the house, removing the clutter and minimizing your personal items. Or there may be a requirement to empty the house and fill it with rented furniture. Some homes may need new linens, some accessories or where necessary, landscaping or re-painting.

Whatever amount of merchandising is done to prepare your home for sale, it will help you realize the most profit on your property.
