Home Magazine's article on Home Stagers ... Staging IS Beneficial

By
Education & Training

Is hiring a stager right for you?  If you have question about the benefits of hiring a home stager or what a professional stagers services are  worth - I would like to strongly encourage you to call upon a local stager and ask them and then pick up a copy of this month's Home Magazine.

On page 78 there is a great article entitled "Home Stager" that is well written and informative.  

Siting statistics, the article states "Staged homes typically fetch 7 percent more than comparable unstaged properties."  In today's market, this seems like a valuable reason to hire a professional.

Want another reason?  The article goes one to say that "it's virtually impossible for the average buyer to visualize the potential of a home."  IMPOSSIBLE!

Is it worth the investment?  Quoting the author, "Statistics indicate YES" (emphasis mine).

If you're a home seller, investor or Realtor this article is worth your time to read it.

If you're a home stager, think about including this article in your marketing. 

Happy Valuable Staging!

Francisco - You're getting it!  Just remember, good staging doesn't have to be expensive to be effective. 

Cari - Yep - you're right.  I thought I recognized those photos.  Craig's abilities speak volumes for staging.

Lynette - I bought my copy at Barnes & Noble.  If you can't find a copy in your neck of the woods, let me know and I'll send you one. (Yes, it's that good).

Penny - Let me know what you think of the article.
