Setting The Stage - Make Your Home Stand Out!

 It may have been enough to keep the grass cut, dirty clothes off the floor and no dishes in the sink -

                 
But let's be straight - those days are gone. 

Staging has taken on a new meaning.

I know you have heard the phrase - Location, Location, Location. 

                The new maxim is "Price, Condition, Location."
 

While we have no control over price or location, staging your home adds perceived value and gives it that magazine photo look in a cost effective manner. Staging will accentuate the finest features of your home, creating a sense of warm welcome, comfort and a pleasing lifestyle. With desirable details highlighted, flaws are less apparent and buyers will be able to imagine how they will enjoy living in the home and the value it will add to their lives.

What does this mean for the seller - your property sells more swiftly and for more money.

No kidding - research shows that home staging can reduce a listing's time on the market by 1/3 to 1/2, and could fetch as much as 6% to 20% more than an empty home or a home not properly staged.

Now that sounds like a Win - Win. I am sure you agree.

 

So, the take away. Consult with a home stager.
