Why is Home Staging so Important?

Why is Home Staging so Important?

As a Montgomery County PA home stager, I can't stress enough the power that staging a home for sale has. If you want your home to be on the market for the shortest amount of time and get a higher offer, home staging is the way to achieve that. Of course there are other factors that affect how quickly your home sells like price, marketing, location, etc. But if you could do everything in your power to make a sale happen quicker, why wouldn't you? With all of those other factors thrown in the mix, why is home staging so important?

There are a lot of buyers out there looking for "turn key" properties. Buyers literally want to turn the key to open the door and unpack. When a buyer walks into a staged home, they're walking into a turn key home. It's clean, uncluttered, has furniture in all the right places and most importantly, it has that "home" vibe. A home stagers job is to create the environment for a buyer to fall in love with a property.

Staged homes wind up being in high demand because they appeal so much to buyers. And when that happens, the offers come in sooner rather than later.

Staged homes also get closer to asking price offers. Think about it..if you walked into a home that needed repainting and updating, you'd put in a lower offer to reflect the work that needs to be done. When you hire a home stager with DIY knowledge like Six Twenty Designs, you'll learn all the inexpensive ways to update your home so buyers don't have to lower their offer. When your home presents well, the "fix it" list becomes almost non-existent. There's nothing left to do but move in!

Why is home staging so important? Because it means higher offers and more of them. In conjunction with all the work your real estate agent does, it's the perfect way to achieve less days on the market.
