If you look at these before and after pictures and don’t believe that a good professional stager won’t help sell a home faster and for more money, than by all means just ignore this.  I, for one, am recommending staging to all my listings.

Man Stages Coffee Table And Sells It In One Hour!

Week prior, man does NOT stage coffee table and it lingers on Craigs list. 

Moral of the story... It pays to stage.

Need more proof? Here it is:

This is the before picture of the living room. Now mind you, I love antiques and have a few in my own home. However, not everyone does.

Living room before home staging

Here's the same room after being professionally home staged: As you can see, we went with a transitional look and feel. With fewer items, the home actually shines through.

Here's the dining room before home staging: Keep in mind that the homeowner was in the middle of getting a few things done. Hence, the ladder.

Here's the dining room after: While I loved the buffet, it was eating up way too much real estate.

Kitchen after: Again, we aimed for a simple, fresh and clean look.

And the results....

Home under contract in 5 days and received a full price offer. In fact, we de-staged this just yesterday!

So... don't let your home linger on the market. Instead, call in a professional home stager. Here in Active Rain, there are several - all worth their weight in gold.

NOTE: All after photos were taken by one of the best real estate photographers in Atlanta, Iran Watson.

As the photographer for our property management business, I couldn't agree more that staging (and photography) are critical to drawing in the potential buyer/renter.

I'm always amazed at the difference staging makes and yes Mark, I noticed the difference in the photography too, especially in the kitchen. 

Also looks like they made some other changes. For example the floor colour in the kitchen. 

I've found that even without painting, cabinet or fixture changes, just staging a home can make a huge difference.

I definitly believe in letting the professional do what they do best. 

Beautiful home Gabe and you're right, it wasn't shining through before the staging.
