What is Home Staging?
Home Staging (House Staging, House Fluffing, House Primping, Real Estate Staging) is the art of decorating a home to sell quickly and for top dollar. Recommending wall colors, repairs and de-cluttering, arrangement of furniture, art and accessories; a professional Home Stager knows what changes yield the greatest return on investment. Staging Diva® Graduate Home Stagers know how to bring out a home's best features, minimize flaws and decorate it for the right target market. We set the stage for a greater number of potential buyers to fall in love and say "this is home!"
Home Staging an essential strategy in a SLOW real estate market In a slow or "buyers" real estate market, your house is just one of many for sale in your neighborhood. Your agent may be saying the only way to sell is to drop your price. Home staging will help you stand out from the competition and sell at a higher price than without staging. CNNMoney interviewed Debra Gould, The Staging Diva on why home staging is an essential strategy in selling your home in a slowing real estate market.
Home Staging in a HOT Imagine a hot market where almost everything is selling. The staged house gets 10 couples bidding on it and the non-staged house (that doesn't show nearly as well) receives only 2 offers. Which one do you think will sell for a higher price?
