Statistics show that staged homes sell faster than non-staged homes, and typically for a higher sales price.
Can you see and
feel the difference? A 2007 - 2008 survey shows that professionally staged occupied homes sold 58% faster in 2007 and 89% faster in 2008. Staged vacant homes on the market sold 68% faster in 2007 and 85% faster in 2008 (Real Estate Staging Association). First impressions are everything! The average home buyer makes an opinion about a property in the first six seconds and only spends 3 to 6 minutes viewing a home. A professionally staged home will give your potential buyers the emotional connection to the property that will last long after they've visited your home. Keep in mind, 87% of home buyers find a house online before requesting a showing making photos of your home more important than ever (National Association of Realtors).
Homes today are being eliminated from the MUST SEE list based on photographs seen on the internet. Professional staging is the key to the quality of those photographs (Real Estate Staging Association). Our staging showcases the home so it is picture perfect both in photos and in person. Deciding to have your home staged is one of the most important considerations as you begin the process of selling your home. It may be tempting to sell "as is", but buyers are currently looking for move-in ready homes and are more likely to buy one that is staged. Putting your house on the market before it is staged could result in fewer showings and ultimately one or more price reductions. The investment in staging is always more cost-effective than your first price reduction and will generate more interest starting with online photos . Nearly half of the brokers polled for a Coldwell Banker survey last year found that 81% of their first-time buyers said move-in conditions were very important (Wall Street Journal). 63% of buyers will pay more for move-in ready homes (Maritz Research). If your home is not move-in ready, there is likely another one in the neighborhood that is! We help sellers create the move-in ready look through our expert staging techniques and property recommendations. A few final reminders: Realtors recognize staged homes as premium listings, resulting in more showings and more offers. Appraisers are more likely to assess staged homes at full value. If a buyer can't envision moving in, they move on.
