Staging is an option and not a mandatory
decision. It is not done for every home
because not every home needs it nor is it
even helpful to some homes if their interior
decor is already attractive.
​
​
​​Staging has to work with the appropriate home etc. Staging is an expense that is generally incurred by us but there are excepting circumstances. Those can be discussed if it's determined that your situation calls for it.
See virtual staging examples / floor plans here.
​
Here are the top 4 reasons to stage your home as defined by NAR (National Association of Realtors):
1. You will make more money
2. Your house will sell faster
3. You will get a good return on your investment
4. Your online photos will stand out
​
Always be aware though, that staging will never sell an overpriced home. Never.
At the end of the day, proper pricing trumps all.​
