Stage a Star had the opportunity to stage a condo unit that had been on the market for 9 long months with very little interest and no offers.  The condo was in a nice retirement community and the unit itself was top notch!  After the condo was staged, it was under contract in 10 days! 

So what was the problem for the last 9 months? 

I had the priviledge of meeting the nice elderly gentleman that bought the unit the day we were de-staging the place.

He had the answer..." It was so much easier to see what it could look like with all the furniture in it" 

 

 

A special shout and a BIG thank you goes out to Gina Zimmerman and Hannah Picotte for assisting in this staging! Gina is an ASP Realtor and Hannah is a Realtor/Interior Designer from Ft. Wayne, Indiana.  They traveled a good distance to team up for the day with Stage a Star.  We actually staged 2 houses that day and they were both AMAZING and so much fun to work with!   A great success story because both houses were under contract in less than 30 days!...this condo 10 days, the other 29 days! Now that's TEAM WORK!

Hello Teresa, it's great to see that you have some really good stuff going on.  How about a little more of the story of how yourself, Gina and Hannah got teamed up on these projects?  By the way the work you gals did looks great.  It is really a fresh, clean look.  I can look at the photos and smell the fresh air.

Teresa, you gals did this place proud! Gary is right, it is like you can smell the fresh air. No wonder it sold so quickly. Kudos to you and your team!

Great job on selling the place fast! And your staging looks awesome. I am with Gary, I would like to hear more about how you all teamed up, and I would love to see photos of the other home that also sold so fast.

This will make me thin twice about staging.  I'll actually consider it now on a difficult to sell listing.  Nice post and nice job on the two sales.

Teresa,

Buyers would scroll by those before pictures in a flash and never look back. Great job!

Teresa, if only we could shout it from the rooftops - staging sells homes!!  Honestly the rooms look so much larger with the furniture and the pictures on MLS would be worth stopping for.  Great job.  Betty

Congrats on the quick sale, Teresa.  Your staging set a very welcoming scene and helped that buyer see himself living there!

Most definetly a change of view with the pictures. Just viewing inside would be much the same.

You guys are great! Thanks for taking a peek and leaving all these kind words. The carpet in the condo was a mint green and that's what I thought the first time I walked through..."FRESH".  The white really worked great with the green carpet too.   I will blog about how Gina, Hannah, and I came to partner up for the day.....we had great synergy but man...we did work our tails off that day!  LOL!

Teresa- Great job.  I was going to comment on how pretty and fresh the peach(?) throw looks in the bedroom and wondered why those particular color selections - your comment above explains it all -  green  :)  perfect!

Lovely job and here is another one of those "nose on your face" things. It's so much easier to imagine living in the space when someone takes the time to show you how. 

Sometimes I wonder why we are still struggling SO much in SO many parts of the country with convincing people of this simple fact. Thanks for sharing the GREAT staging stats!

Well done. Staging makes SUCH a difference in vacants, its really amazing. If just everyone believed it, it would make our jobs so much easier.  Love the apothecary jar...  I seem to use at least one in each of my stagings.

Teresa,  great job!  Did you use an EZ Bed?  If so where did you get the bedskirt?  Was it 24"?

There's just no doubt houses and condos look better staged, (properly) I can't believe everyone doesn't do it!
