Should I Stage my Home?

While there are different “levels” of staging, the short answer is YES!

Here is why:

  • A staged home shows better. Buyers often purchase on feelings — a thoughtfully arranged home allows buyers to picture themselves living in your home more easily.

  • The proof is in the numbers! According to the Real Estate Staging Association, staged homes sell 73% faster, on average, than their non-staged counterparts.

  • No time or budget to do the entire house? Focus on the entryway and living room. The living room is one of your home's largest spaces, so leaving it empty, or worse —cluttered, won't impress potential buyers.

Pros & Cons of Home Staging

What is Virtual Staging?

Virtual staging is a tool realtors like to use to position a home that’s for sale in its best possible light. Using digital photos of the property, a realtor will employ photo editing software to digitally arrange one room or even the entire house.

Like traditional staging, anything can be added from artwork and rugs to beds, tables, and sofas. But instead of lugging real furniture in and out, it can all be done with the click of a button! Even better? It costs just a fraction of what you'd spend on traditional staging.

The Truth:

Homes with high curb appeal sell for an average of 7% more than similar houses with a “blah” exterior. If you want top dollar for your home, mow the lawn, spread fresh mulch, plant some seasonal color, and power up the pressure washer.
