Top Ten Reasons You Should Professionally
Stage Your Home…

1. You will make more money.
U.S. Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged home will
sell, on average, 17% higher than an un-staged home.

2. Your house will sell faster, which equals less headaches and
hassles.
The New York Village Voice reported that the average number of days
an un-staged home is on the market is 30.9 versus 13.9 for a staged
home.

3. The cost of staging doesn’t cost a dime.
In a 2007 Home Gain Survey of over 2000 realtors, it was discovered
that sellers who spent typically $500 on staging services for their home
recovered over 343% of the cost
in the sale of their home.

4. Most home sellers cannot view their house objectively.
If you can’t see objectively, you can’t package effectively. Have a
staging professional get your home into its most advantageous
condition for showing.

5. You’ll have less guesswork and “Do It Yourself “work.
A professional home stager can manage your projects from start to
finish. Or, they can give you a detailed enough report based on their
extensive knowledge and training to have you “do it yourself”.

6. Only 10% of home buyers can visualize the potential of a home.
This is why staging a home is critical! You don’t want the advantages
of your home overlooked and left up to the buyer’s imagination.

7. The longer your home is on the market, the lower the price will be.
So stage first!
According to a National Association of Realtors survey, homes that
sold after four weeks on the market sold for 6% less than ones within
the first four weeks! Don’t be in a position where you have to lower
your price. Have your house staged first!

8. The money you make may be tax-free. The money you spend is tax
deductible.
Take advantage of a possible tax-free capital gain by getting every
dollar possible!

9. Leaving your house in “as is” condition will help sell the competition.
Right now the number of homes for sale on the market is at a record
high. Competition is stiff and buyers have very high expectations.
Successful agents know that the key to selling competing is
professional staging.

10. You can relax.
You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have done absolutely
everything possible to affect a quick sale of your most valuable
commodity and for top dollar!
