Reasons You Should
Professionally Stage Your Home ....

		You Will Make More Money U.S.
		Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged house sells, on average, 6.9% higher than a non-staged house.

		Your House Will Sell Faster =
		Less Headaches & Hassle The staged homes have an average increase in sales price of 6.9 percent over non-staged homes and sell in half the time of non-staged homes. The assertion is based on a survey of 200 homes prepared for sale by accredited staging professionals, comparing data such as list prices of houses before and after staging and days on the market before sale.

		The Cost of Staging, Doesn't Cost
		A Dime In a 2003 HomeGain Survey of over 2000 Realtors it was discovered that sellers who spent up to $1000 Staging their home recovered almost 200% of the cost in the sale of their home.

		their House Objectively If you can't see objectively, you can't "package" effectively. Have a staging professional give you a detailed, step by step, plan for less than $1000 so you can do the work yourself.

		Yourself"... A professional home stager can manage your projects from start to finish OR give you a detailed report based on their extensive knowledge and training.

Home Staging Equals Quick Sale

Staged To Sell
provides Realtors and
home owners with
professional staging
services.

What is Home Staging?

Home staging may be defined as preparing your house to be as
visually and aesthetically pleasing as possible. First impressions
are huge in real estate, and staging a home is designed to do just
that, make an incredible first impression! The ultimate goal of
staging is to place the home in the best showcase condition, so
that it sells at the highest possible price in the shortest possible
time. You also want your home to appeal to the widest possible
range of people that could be viewing your home, and you want
potential buyers to visualize the lifestyle they could have if they
buy your home.

Professionally done staging will lead the eye to attractive features
while minimizing flaws. With the use of furniture, plants,
landscaping, music and more, all coordinated with a "designer's
eye", I will turn your house in to a very appealing "must have"
property, that buyers will see not just as a house, but a beautiful
home!

A well-staged home will give it the appearance of being larger than
it may actually be, and it's always good to remind yourself that
every square foot you free up is prime real estate! By having your
home professionally staged, you transform your house into a "hot
property" by making it more visually appealing. Most prospective
buyers make a decision within ten seconds of walking through your
front door, and the ultimate goal is having them walk in and say "I
can see myself living in this house!"

Staged To Sell

Fact 1. Home Staging is a KEY Marketing Tool!
Home staging is a KEY Marketing tool for Realtors and Sellers...A House
that is Staged stands out from the competition - this impacts the
marketing of this house as Buyers like purchasing Staged houses! Real
Estate Agents can use Home Staging as a marketing tool to win listings
over agents that do not understand the benefits of marketing a house
that is Staged!
Staging is also a Value Added Service - and is the only service done in
preparation of a house for sale that brings measurable value!
TIP: Always get the house Staged BEFORE it comes on the market!

Fact 2: Staged To Sell Homes Sell Faster...
This FACT is true in any market at any time! I have the statistics to
prove this - and have seen the houses staged sell faster than
comparable non-staged houses. In any market, a staged house will be
more appealing, cleaner, more inviting and ready to move in for buyers!
Staging is a way of connecting with the buyer - and it's our job to ensure
that connection happens by working with sellers.

Fact 3: Staged To Sell Homes Sell for More Money!
This FACT is true in any market - swift or slow...In a hot market, staging
means more money for the sellers and possibly multiple offers. In a
slower marker, as long as the house is priced right, staging means the
house will get an offer, and the other non-staged houses will be "used"
as a benchmark - sitting on the market while the staged property sells.
