STAGING FAQ'S...
My house
is modest and isn’t worth having a professional stager…
The
experts at GreatStages work with all budgets. Even spending
a few hundred dollars for professional staging services
gives you a huge advantage over your competition. Commonly
you get a far greater return and your home sells much faster
if you stage according to statistics.
The
market is tough right now and I’m afraid of putting more
money into my house…
In a
competitive market, staging is even more necessary to ensure
a quicker sale. Housing inventory is running at record highs
so your home needs to stand out from the competition.
Professionally staged homes sell on average for 6% more and
are on the market for less time. Your first reduction in
price will always be far more than the cost of staging.
Can’t I
just stage on my own?
Very few
home sellers are able to successfully stage their own homes.
Why? Because over time, you get used to seeing your home as
it is and the flaws become less obvious. You need another
set of eyes, a fresh professional perspective, to help you
objectively view your home through a “buyer’s eyes”.
Why
can’t buyers just use their imagination?
Professional staging is critical since 90% of buyers cannot
see the hidden potential in your home. A vacant home is even
harder for a buyer to deal with. Rooms look cold and small
when they are vacant so staging with furniture and
accessories help them to have a reference point.
