Staging The most cost effective marketing tool for selling real estate, especially in today's market.
 
 
 
What is Staging?
 
 
Home Staging is professionally preparing your home for sale so that it will appeal to the most buyers yielding the highest price in the least amount of time.

 

 

 

 

What Staging is Not:
 
 
Home Staging is NOT decorating, fluffing or interior design.  Instead, Home Staging is detailing, de-cluttering, depersonalizing and preparing your home to give it a "model home" appearance so that potential buyers can "see" themselves living in your home.
 
 
 
Why Stage?

 

 

Staged Homes look far better than competing homes on the market, so they sell faster and at a higher price.

 

Staged Homes in DFW sell on average for 5% more and 6 times faster.

 

Staging allows buyers to "mentally move in" - an absolute necessity.

 

"ROSI" - "Return on Staging Invesment" - the investment in staging is far less than your first price reduction, often yielding returns of 300% or more.

 

In today's market conditions, staging is extremely important, now more than ever, to make your listing stand out in the marketplace.

 

 

 

 Why Staging Works:

 

 

Staged Homes look and show far better than competing homes on the market.

 

Photos of Staged Homes are more appealing in both print and internet advertising.

 

Staged Homes are identified by both agents and buyers as the best properties to see, resulting in more showings and more offers.

 

Buyers perceive Staged Homes as homes that have been well maintained.

 

Staging highlights the home's full potential and focal points.

 

Buyers will see your home, not your stuff.  Remember, they are looking for a home!
