Real Estate Agents need to "up your game" if you are going to keep up with today's market as well as the future markets to come! if you look at any person or thing that has "stayed the same" they always fade off and "die" EVOLUTION is KEY TO SUCCESS. Take Madonna for example she is a music icon, how did she do it? she kept up with the times changing, evolving offering more to her fans which in turn kept her in the fore front of the music empire.

how can you evolve in the real estate market as an agent that home buyers and sellers STRIVE for?

Have an exceptional marketing plan that will help your clients get their home sold fast and for the most amount of money. Home Sellers are now asking for home stagers even before the agents hits the home! Why not market yourself stating you USE home stagers and that you will provide them with a staging consultation or even the full staging package.

Home Staging is an investment! you will get any money you put in to your home BACK! let's say you list a home for 300,000 and you didn't stage it. The likely hood that it's going to sit on the market longer than it should is inevitable. Staging a home PRIOR to listing will cut your time on the market in HALF and by doing so you save money on ADVERTISING, MARKETING, OPEN HOUSES, and PRICE DECREASES are less likely! so when you provide this service to your clients they appreciate the added effort to get their home sold but when it does sell fast YOU will be at the TOP of their recommendation list!

CHANGE with the TIMES dont fall back with the rest of the crowed and start usign stagers on every single property you have! you wont regret the decisio to do so!

You are so right Kristy. I am gaining more clients who want to offer a staging consult as part of their presentation package.

I've found this too -- the smartest agents I know are now offering a staging consultation as part of their marketing strategy.  They know that staged homes sell faster!

Not only do those savy agent know their homes will look better online and in person -- they are actually saving marketing $$ in the long run by having quicker sales.  There is no better referral than a delighted seller who knows a realtor has gone above the "normal" by providing a staging consultation!
