Staging your home can be crucial when it comes to the home selling process. A buyer can determine within 30 seconds if your home is the right fit for them. By showing your home to it’s truest potential, the odd’s of having a buyer see it and love it are greater.
A FREE Home Staging Consultation by an accredited Staging Professional is included in the services you recieve when you list your home with Andrew Costa
The goal of home staging is to highlight all the positive aspects of your home while minimizing the negative. Below are thetop ten reasons to stage your home (from the home staging report).
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 Equals Less Headaches & Hassles The average number of days an un-stagedhome is on the market is 160 days, versus 31 days for a staged home.
3. 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.
4. Most Home Sellers cannot View their Home 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.
5. 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".
6. Only 10% of Home Buyers can Visualize the Potential of a Home This is why staging a home is critical! You may be able to visualize potential with your own home because you are so familiar with it, but buyers only see your home for a few minutes, so don't assume they have the time or ability to visualize.
7. The Longer your Home is on the Market, the Lower the Price will be..STAGE 1st! 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!
8. There is a Qualitative & Quantitative Value in being able to Move on with your Life If you are ready to move, you should do everything necessary to make the sale happen quickly. Selling a house can be one of the most stressful experiences in life, and if you can't sell, other areas of your life become affected. Staging will get you the results you are looking for - quickly!
9. Leaving your Home in "as is" Condition will help SELL THE COMPETITION The number of homes for sale on the market is at a record high. Competition is stiff and buyers have very high expectations. Agents will show your house even if it is not presented well, but only to show the buyer what better value they can get with another property. Don't be the reason your competition sells before you!
10. You can Relax You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have done absolutely everything possible to enable a quick sale of your most valuable asset and for top dollar!
