Staging & Redesigning
Why Stage? Experts agree, home buying is an emotional decision so you want to visually engage the buyer immediately so they imagine themselves living there.
First Impressions only happen once and count the most when selling a home. A staged home puts its best foot forward and gives it the WOW factor it deserves.
Research proves that professionally Staged Houses sell more quickly and for more money then those that were not. In today’s difficult real estate market having your house professionally staged is an investment well worth the cost. Staging your property is cheaper than your first price reduction!
It’s all about getting the buyer to stay in the home and eliminating those questions a buyer would have about a home that does not look “model ready”.
By redesigning the space through furniture placement and accessorizing we can put emphasis on the home’s BEST features making it possible for potential home buyers to see themselves living there.
Showcasing your property for sale may include removing or rearranging rugs, window treatments and furniture, adding just enough accessories to make the home feel updated, keeping just the balance and flow so the attention is drawn to the best architectural features of the house.
Even some of the most beautifully decorated homes can fail from a staging point of view, because the way we live in our homes is not the way we sell them.
Preparing your home for sale or rent, may include tasks as de-cluttering, removing personal items, paint, minor repairs that potential buyers may think will cost more than they are, updating light fixtures, etc.
When staging a home for sale the goal is to make the house feel warm, highlight the selling features, downplay negatives, give the potential buyers a frame of reference and answer questions potential buyers may have regarding layout or functionality.
If your property is vacant, a flip or a new build, whether you want sell or rent, staging is a must. Less than 10% home buyers can see the space as their home. Staged homes sell 80% faster and for up to 10% more than properties that are not staged.
Rental Properties can also benefit greatly from Home staging. Staging a home to be rented can create more interest from favorable potential tenants, get the property rented faster and at the best asking price.
Prices depend on the style, square footage and layout of the house/apartment as well as number of rooms to be staged.Contact us at (1) 809 499 8303 for more information.
