Staging

What is Home Staging?

The practice of styling and furnishing a property for sale in such a way as to enhance its attractiveness to potential buyers.

The Impact on Buyers

When a house is staged well, it's easier for potential buyers to have an emotional reaction and personal connection to that home.  Buyers will understand the purpose of each room and can picture themselves, and their furnishings, living there.  Home staging will also enhance the attractiveness of photos taken for the property sale listing - beautiful photos on the MLS will bring more showings; more showings lead to faster sales and, often, higher sales prices.

Let us help you arrange your furniture and accessories to make a stunning first impression on potential buyers. 

 

DID YOU KNOW?*

81% of buyers say home staging makes it easier to visualize the property as their future home.

45% of buyers say it will positively impact the value of the home if it is decorated to the buyer's tastes.

85% of the staged homes sold for 6-25% more than the unstaged homes.

Once staged, homes spend an average of 73% less time on the market.

What We Offer

If your home is vacant, it is highly recommended that you stage the living room, master bedroom and accessorize the kitchen, at the very least.  Let us help you add the necessities to the property that will help potential buyers envision themselves living there.

For an occupied home, we go room by room and focus on your furniture, artwork, accessories, photos, and other personal belongings to identify which items should be packed and put in storage, and which could be used or re-purposed for staging.  We will also make suggestions for new items or minor updates to your home that would make your home market ready in order to maximize its impact on potential buyers.

Fee: $225, includes walk-through consultation and written report (to be received within 48 hours after walk- through).

Call  970-215-0991 to request a consultation.
