Top Ten Reasons You Should Professionally
Stage Your Home…
-
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.
-
Your house will sell faster, which
equals less headaches and hassles.
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.
-
The cost of staging doesn’t cost
a dime.
In a 2007 Home Gain Survey of
over 2000 realtors, it was discovered
that sellers who spent typically
$500 on staging services for
their home recovered over 343%
of the cost in the sale of their
home.
-
Most home sellers cannot view
their house objectively.
If you can’t see objectively,
you can’t package effectively.
Have a staging professional get
your home into its most advantageous
condition for showing.
-
You’ll have less guesswork and
“Do It Yourself “work.
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”.
-
Only 10% of home buyers can visualize
the potential of a home.
This is why staging a home is
critical! You don’t want the
advantages of your home overlooked
and left up to the buyer’s imagination.
-
The longer your home is on the
market, the lower the price will
be. So stage first!
According to a National Association
of Realtors survey, homes that
sold after four weeks on the
market sold for 6% less than
ones within the first four weeks!
Don’t be in a position where
you have to lower your price.
Have your house staged first!
-
The money you make may be tax-free.
The money you spend is tax deductible.
Take advantage of a possible
tax-free capital gain by getting
every dollar possible!
-
Leaving your house in “as is”
condition will help sell the
competition.
Right now the number of homes
for sale on the market is at
a record high. Competition is
stiff and buyers have very high
expectations. Successful agents
know that the key to selling
competing is professional staging.
-
You can relax.
You will have the satisfaction
of knowing you have done
absolutely everything possible
to affect a quick sale of
your most valuable commodity
and for top dollar!
