Even if your bowling trophies and older style carpet feel like home to you, they might turn off potential buyers. That’s why staging – as seen on TV – has become a popular technique to help sell houses. But home staging is more than just redecorating; it’s a way to help potential buyers feel like your house could be their next home.
It might seem counterintuitive to spend money on a home that you’re leaving, but the cost might be worth it. Accordingly, the final sale price on staged homes can be an average of 3% higher versus those that were not. Staged homes also typically spend 80% less time on the market.
Staging doesn’t have to be expensive or overwhelming. If you don’t know where to begin, talk to Don, who has a professional stager with a college degree in Interior Design ready to send out to your house and make it ready for the sale!
