TIP: Staging isn't a "cost" ...it is an "investment" that assures that you will receive the highest return on your investment possible. When considering making an investment in staging, remember that staging services are always less out of pocket than your first price reduction!
Don't wait to see what happens. The first 10 days your home is on the market is the most important since it is at the top of the list!

HOME STAGING FACTS:
​
• Staged homes appeal to a broader range of buyers, thus creating more offers.
• Home staging removes "buyer objections" which lessons the chance of buyers asking for concessions.
• Staging creates a higher a selling price and at times biding wars.
• Staged homes have a marketing advantage over un-staged homes in any market (Low or High).
• Occupied Staging places emphasis on the homes best features, not the lifestyle of the seller.
• Buyer's are more apt to buy a staged home because the maintenance issues, repairs and updates have been addressed.
• Staged Homes create a "Move In Ready" home. People don't have time to fix up homes anymore, they seek homes that are ready to start living their best life in.
