Common Questions

Home staging is the process of preparing a home for sale by highlighting its best features and creating an environment that speaks to a buyer’s psychology. To stand out in a competitive market, it has to be as appealing as possible and stand out from the crowd. Home staging focuses on what the buyer will need to see and feel when they walk through a home to inspire them to make an offer right away.

Home staging is about making a home appealing to the widest range of buyers possible while decorating focuses on one person’s personal taste. In home staging, everything is kept neutral so that buyers can invisage themselves living there in there with their things.  While the homeowner may love their décor, this can make buyers have a hard time picturing their own décor in its place and become turned off from the home entirely.

Home staging can be a completely do-it-yourself process with the help of home staging guides. However, professional home stagers often see things that others don’t and can give you a personalized evaluation of your home to give it the best chance at standing out from the competition. Some home stagers also have warehouses full of décor, artwork, and furniture to save you from hours of looking and purcahsing things you dont need.

Several studies show that home staging helps homes sell faster and for more money than non-staged homes. Once staged, homes spend an average of 73% less time on the market and buyers are willing to spend 1% to 5% more of the dollar value on a staged home than a non-staged home. In the competitive housing market of today, home staging is one of the best marketing strategies
