Yes, home staging can be done while you still live in the property or when the home is vacant. For an occupied home, the home stager will clear out clutter, rearrange furniture, and bring in decor and furniture as needed to create stunning, inviting, warm and functional environments. The purpose is to neutralize and redecorate spaces to create mass appeal. This will create and emotional and positive experience allowing buyers to visualize themselves living in the property and be more likely to buy it right away.  Normally occupied homes have too much personal décor, that it makes difficult for a potential buyer to visualize themselves living in the space. The way we live in our home is not the way we market our home.

Studies have shown that when sellers stage their properties, their return is an average of 6 – 30% more than they would have gotten if they hadn’t staged.

Investing in staging will secure the equity in your home and will not give buyers the opportunity to try and reduce your asking price.

Yes, ideally you will like to stage before your home goes on the market, as properties are considered “hot” within the first 2 weeks of listing.  The longer your house sits on the market, the more likely your asking price will be reduced. It may also prevent you from shopping for your new home. However, if your home is already on the market, staging will decrease any additional time it could end up sitting on the market. Staging your house with us will cost much less than a price reduction.

The price for home staging depends on the number of rooms that needs to be staged; as well as the number of repairs, furniture and décor pieces we need to bring in. Every home is unique and custom. Whether it is one room or 12 rooms, there is no project that is too big or too small. Most importantly, don’t forget that home staging is not a cost, it is an investment and it will cost less than reducing your price of your property.  Occupied homes typically cost less to stage as they are already furnished, and can require less time and resources than staging an empty house. According to National Association of Realtors (NARS), for every $100 invested in staging, the potential return is $400.

There are no sellers who have staged their properties with a certified stager and lost their money. Having a well-staged property will attract more potential buyers willing to pay asking or bid over asking.

The way we live in our home is not how we market our home. We need to ensure that buyers can see past your belongings and envision themselves living happily in your home. We appeal to the maximum of potential buyers. The National Association of Realtors survey found that the longer a property stays on the market, the further the price of the property drops. This means that homes that stayed on the market for 13-24 weeks sold approximately for 6.4% less than the originally listed price, while those that stayed on the market for 4-6 weeks sold for 5% less than the originally listed price. Although it’s clear that staging yields considerable returns, most sellers don’t understand or perceive the huge benefits that staging offers during the selling process.
