Here is another AMAZING staging success story for all you Realtors and home sellers still considering staging:

Two weeks ago our team staged a home in Wayne, Delaware County Pennsylvania. The home had been on the market for almost 7 months with many showings but no offer. We met with the home seller and came up with a plan to make the home more marketable. The home owner was willing to follow our suggestions and painted a few rooms and did some yard maintenance to give the home a fresh first impression. Our team then arrived to prepare the home for sale. Within a matter of hours we transformed the entire home using all of the owners personal belongings.

The result- within 2 days they received 3 written and 2 verbal offers- including an offer over asking!!

Read our client's testimonial to learn more about how staging is a key marketing tool in the Main Line/Philadelphia Real Estate Market:

Dear Kate -

I have to admit that at first I was skeptical about the value of staging a home for sale..... but needless to say, I'm now a convert!

After having our home was on the market for 6 months (with tons of activity but no offer!) I finally decided to remove the house from the market and wait for the spring market. During the holidays I was lucky enough to read about your services and after some encouragement from Melissa, we contacted you to give us an estimate for staging. Your advice was right on and in a matter of weeks we made the minor improvements you suggested such as repainting a few rooms. You and your team then came to our home the day before I re-listed it, and in a matter of hours completely prepared our home for showings. Well I don't know what exactly it was, but after a weekend of showings, I had three offers on the table with two "in the works" and by Sunday evening signed an agreement for more than my asking price!

You can't argue with results! Based on my experience and what I have learned since then, I highly recommend your services to anyone selling their home. It was well worth the investment and is something I wish we had done months ago. Thanks so much for your help and best of luck with your business. You can add me to your satisfied customer list and I'm happy to be a testimonial for you anytime.

All the best,

David

I agree staging can be a good step more many home owners.  The biggest problem is getting them to see the value.

Who  would have "thunk" it  staging works.

Congratulations on great work At first it is like herding cats--- Realtors don't listen and want to do their own thing--- and homeowners are sceptical.

This home was  very, very untidy not dirty just untidy with clutter everywhere. Went in on a Tuesday virtual tour wednesday, open house Saturday and Sunday sold Sunday with multiple offers and $6,000 above asking price. Another Realtor say my work, loved it and now have a staging for April 23 just down the street and and a promise of all her stagings plus a 2.2 million home in August Wow!!!! Getting the word out there is what we need to do. Am doing 8 right bnow and they googled staging and phoned me.!!!!

Staging it forward!!!

WOO HOO!  Great story!  Thanks for sharing your success!  It gives me tons of hope that my biz will take off one of these days too.  Share some pics...I'd love to see what you did utilizing the homeowners personal belongings...this is something I personally struggle with.

Great story and testimonial..When the sellers get it and do what they need to do...HOUSES SELL. Sometimes they are so afraid of spending the money that they never consider what they will lose by hanging onto the property for several more months without it selling.

Great Job
