Staging is taking your home and making it a product. The ultimate goal of Staging is to place the home in the best showcase condition so that it sells at the best possible price in the shortest time. We live in our homes one way, but buyers expect our home to look very different. Buyers of today are around 32 years old and want "move in ready". They don't want to do any work, they want upgrades, they want internet connectivity in several rooms, they want things that buyers were not looking for 5 years ago. So how do you prpare your home correctly? An experienced professional stager knows the difference. They know what current trends are, they know what upgrades make or break the sale, they know how to help your market your home to these buyers. A properly prepared home will sell at top dollar and may cut the time on the market by as much as 50%. An experienced professional stager accentuates the positive attributes of the property, they do not decorate, nor do they hide. This allows the buyer to see the home in the best condition. To sell quickly, the house needs to stand out from the similar properties on the real estate market place. Staging a property sends the message of a well-cared for home and by creating a series of good first impressions, and showcasing the home's best features, the buyer connects emotionally and is able to visualize living there.
If you have a property that you are thinking of selling, or you just want some advice for your existing home... we would be honored to help you.
