Top 5 Reasons You Should Stage Your Home.

1. You will make more money.

U.S. Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged home will sell, on average, 17% higher than an un-staged home.

2. Your home will sell faster which = less headaches and hassle.

The New York Village Voice reported that the average number of days an un-staged home is on the market is 30.9 versus 13.9 for a staged home.

3. The cost of Staging doesn't cost a dime.

In a 2003 Home Gain Survey of over 2000 Realtors, it was discovered that sellers who spent up to $1000 staging their home recovered almost 200% of the cost of the sale of their house.

4. Home sellers cannot view their house objectively, thus stage effectively.

Our homes are like our children, we don’t always see all of its flaws. We’ve gotten used to the way it looks and in fact it is difficult emotionally to change it.

5. Less guesswork and "do it yourself".

A professional home stager can manage your projects from start to finish. Or, they can give you a detailed enough report based on their extensive knowledge and training to have you "do it yourself".
