Setting the stage in Atlanta, Georgia. Why Investors should use home staging.

Home Stager with Home-A-Dress

Attention Atlanta Builders, Renovators and home owners with empty rooms!!

"Home-A-Dress" can easily increase the selling price of your empty home by thousands with minimal investment.

Decorating your house to sell,  will help you sell in record time and get the most money for your home.

Tempted to leave a room or home empty like this one?

If you've done the expensive and time-consuming job of renovating, don't decide to save money when it comes to furnishings and accessories!

It's hard to stay motivated when you've gone through expensive renovations, suffered with delays, gone over your budget. You can be tempted to say, "it's good enough."

This is short sighted and can cost you alot of money!

It's relatively inexpensive to rent anything you may need, and these finishing touches help ensure you make the profit you deserve for all those renovations.

Imagine it's the Academy Awards. A big star is wearing a fabulous designer gown so she decides she doesn't need to get her hair done. Does everyone talk about the fabulous gown? Of course not, all they can remember is that terrible hair.

Not providing the finishing touches leaves a huge amount of money on the table when it's time to sell.

Or imagine a fine painting placed in a dollar store frame. Does the painting have the same appeal as it would if it had gone to a professional framer? No, suddenly it looks like it must be a cheap painting instead of the beautiful work of art that it is.

Conversely, have you ever taken one of your 3 year old's paintings and had it framed? What a difference compared to how it looked when you had it on the fridge with a magnet.

Why does one shirt sell for $15 and another for $100? They're both 100% cotton and they're probably made in the same country. The $100 version has a big name on the label, it's sold in a fine boutique.

It's all about context and packaging... home staging is about packaging a home to show off its best features and downplay the flaws. Home staging is about romancing the buyer, putting them in the mood to make an emotional connection with a house. Let us dress your home for succes.
