This blog is my opinion as a consumer.
As staging becomes more popular, I am hearing more and more about it and it makes sense.
I enter a lot of different houses, see many different kinds of houses, and notice many real estate signs, listings and advertisements.
Many Realtors will encourage a home seller to purchase a home warranty, or even purchase one themselves, to make a listing more attractive. Some will encourage staging or even stage a home themselves.
When pitting one against the other.
To me the staging just seems so much more of an effective approach. I really don't know what makes a house sell. I am not an expert at that nor do I believe my opinion matters, but I know what works for me and the people I know. When you consider that the cheif decision maker, when deciding on which house to purchase is the woman, than staging makes much more sense. If the house is attractive, the emotional connection a woman has with a house is so much more meaningful to her than a warranty.
If the man is making the decision on the purchase than the warranty will be more attractive to him, but in todays U.S.A. that will be less usual, than before.
I vote home staging..................Your thoughts.
