When you think of investing, your mind does not automatically go to home staging. However, you should really take a look at why so many real estate companies are now including home staging as a definite and required perk when selling homes.
According to stagedhome.com and the Real Estate Staging Association, the statistics can tell you more about why home staging is so important:
- Home staging can reduce list time by 50%
- 88% of homes sell at or above listing price
- Staged homes make it easier for buyers to visualize the property as a future home
- Home staging appeals to a buyer’s taste
Often clients are not too sure about home staging especially if you have to hire a home stager with upwards costs of $2,000 plus the realtor listing your home. Our Anne Winch Ottawa Real Estate and Staging Team is a realtor and we also provide home staging, at no cost to you. It is much easier when you have a company working for you that does both. We are also able to sit down with you and explain what needs to be done to stage your home and how to get it listed as soon as possible.
We have known for many years that a staged home shows well and sells well. Your home is in direct competition with many homes and we want your home to look its best at first glance. You have only a few seconds on the internet to make an impression. Staged homes are visibly more pleasing to the eye and it is crucial to make a strong impression to attract buyers.
We also know that home staging is a direct return on investment (ROI) for sellers as these homes sell faster and for more money. Our Team believes in the power of staging a home no matter the market. A potential buyer can see your house at its best and sellers can get top-dollar and a quicker sale. Not only is it beneficial for you to sell your home, it saves you thousands of dollars in the long run.
Let’s face it as sellers we are attached to our homes. It is sometimes hard to detach and try to honestly get a different perspective. Our Team can come into your home and notice the best features that need to be highlighted and how to market your home to sell. Staging is one of the best marketing tools out there.
Lastly, why not be the seller that can relax and let the professionals take the wheel. We want you to enjoy the freedom of selling your home without the stress. Knowing that you have one team that sells and stages your home can be much easier than dealing with a multitude of contacts to sell your home and then another company to stage it. So why not make the move of having your home staged and sold quicker? Now that’s a good investment!
