Many realtors agree that Staging is the first step prior to selling any home. The benefits are numerous.
First impressions are everything. A buyer will evaluate the home's curb appeal and if to proceed inside, in the first 10 seconds. A sale could be lost before the buyer even opens the front door. Effective Staging addresses interior and exterior issues.
Focal points are your selling assets. Staging will identify the best features your home has to offer and subtly direct attention to them. It will be those very features that distinguish your home from the others.
Retain your value. A home that sits on the market too long loses value. Staging could entice buyers to make an offer quickly so that you get closer to, or in some cases, above your asking price, in any market.
Keep your sanity. Most people know that the up-keep of a house on the market can be a constant headache. Selling quickly obviously solves that, but having a professionally Staged home creates a space in need of minimal follow-up care.
When you consider that the first price drop of a long sitting home is substantially more than the investment of a professional Stager, its an exceptional value.
