Why Staging Works!
1. You will make more money. U.S. Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged home will sell, on average, 17% higher than a non-staged home.
2. Professional staging proves year after year to sell properties at a significantly higher rate than non-staged properties - RESA conducted a national study on properties that were professionally staged and found remarkable results:
|
Vacant Homes |
Occupied Homes | |
|
| Unstaged and Marketed |
Avg. 120 Days on Market |
Avg. 102 days on Market | ||
| Staged and Marketed |
Avg. 26 Days on Market |
Avg 45 Days on Market |
3. The cost of staging doesn’t cost a dime! In a Home Gain Survey of over 2000 Realtors, sellers who spent typically $500 on staging services for their
home recovered over 343% of the cost in the sale of their home.
4. Most home sellers cannot view their house objectively. If you can’t see objectively, you can’t package it effectively. Have a Staging professional get your home into its most advantageous condition
for showing.
5. You’ll have less guesswork . A professional Home Stager can manage your projects from start to
finish, or they can guide you to “do it yourself”.
6. Only 10% of home buyers can visualize the potential of a home. This is why staging a home is critical! You don’t want the positive features of your home overlooked and left up to the buyer’s imagination.
7. The longer your home is on the market, the lower the price will be.
According to a National Association of Realtors survey, homes that sold
after four weeks on the market sold for 6% less than ones within the
first four weeks! Don’t be in a position where you have to lower your
price. Have your house staged first!
8. Staging expenses are tax deductible, just as your Realtor and Attorney fee's are.
9. Leaving your house in “as is” condition will help sell the competition. Right now the number of homes for sale on the market is at a record
high. Competition is stiff and buyers have very high expectations.
Successful agents know that the key to selling quickly is
professional Staging.
10. You can relax. You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have done absolutely
everything possible to produce a quick sale of your most valuable
commodity and for top dollar!
