It goes without saying that each agent wants to sell their listings quickly and for the most money possible. One way to help accomplish that is to offer staging as part of your services. Offering staging services to your clients will set you apart from agents that do not offer that value added service. It also demonstrates your dedication to doing everything possible to assist your clients in the home selling process. As a bonus, it ensures that your listing presents as beautifully as possible.
Statistics show that staging will help sell a home 50% faster and for 6-10% more money* than unstaged homes. In the 2007 Home Gain survey of over 2,000 Realtors, it was discovered that there is currently a 364% return on the investment of staging! Here is the latest report on home improvements from HomeGain (2011). Even more powerful is this staging statistics report by RESA (Real Estate Staging Association).
I don't want to offend home sellers whose listing I value
Staging a home to sell involves too much work and money
I'm not into decorating
It will sell without staging if the price is right
I told home sellers what to do...they just didn't do it or didn't do it well
I did stage the home but it's still not selling...
Leaving the home you are representing in "as is" condition helps sell the competition. Every home -- no matter what the price-- benefits from staging. With a record number of homes on the market, it's the perfect way to have your listing stand out as the home with the difference.
