Need money?.........get Staging!
The first question a potential client will ask is.......   predictably, "How much will it cost?"  I'm sure that we all agree, this is a question that service providers hate to answer because the answer is dependent on so many different variables.
What I wish that clients (and Realtors) would understand that is that Staging is not a "cost" ....it is an "investment" ........in the sale of their home. I'm amazed at how many Seller's elect to leave money on the table, rather than "invest" up front. Tell many Sellers that Staging can not only get their house sold faster, but will result in a larger return on their dollar, and many will shrug and leave that money there. Is this a reflection on how "cash poor" our society has become?  Perhaps. But I assure you that the Sellers that realize the potential to be gained from Staging are the educated Sellers who understand "diversified portfolio's," have life insurance, and don't purchase the "Times" just for appearance sake!
