Home Staging helps relocating sellers move fast

In a slow economy, many people are forced to relocate when they find new jobs. No one wants to have to move before they’ve sold their home, and since home staging has been shown to reduce the average number of days on the market, this makes it a very appealing service.

Many sellers who hadn’t heard about home staging or were reluctant to invest in it before listing their homes will become increasingly more open to staging services as they realize how much it’s costing them to carry two mortgages because they can’t sell.

Staging Diva Graduate Leah Fritz of Perfect Place Home Staging in Wisconsin staged a home for a couple that had already moved to a different state. Their home had been sitting on the market for 9 months but sold within weeks of Leah’s staging.

“The buyer loved my living room setup so much they asked to buy the furniture,” says Leah. “So my clients got a nice offer and a good chunk of their staging expenses back due to the sale of the furnishings! Win, Win, Win!”

I’d love to hear stories from other home stagers about how you’ve helped a family relocate fast thanks to your home staging services. Please add a comment and join in the discussion!
