Visitors always say my house is beautiful. Why do I need to stage?

Decorating a home for beauty and enjoyment is different than staging a home. When we stage, we must create an envioronment that appeals to the greatest number of potential buyers and evokes emotion in them. The end goal is to sell the house quickly for the highest price possible. Think of it as a marketing tactic.



Isn't staging expensive?

According to Internation Association of Home Staging Professionals, home staging provides a return on investment of over 500%, and the US Housing and Urband Develpment says staged homes sell for 17% higher on average. Can you afford NOT to stage?
