home staging: Put Your Money Where the Market Is
- 04/30/12 11:10 AM
As a home stager, I do my best to guide my clients on renovating their property in a way that will give them the most “bang for their buck”. As many of us in the industry know – The National Association of Realtors states that those who generally spend 1-3% of the value of their home on preparing their home to sell, reap 8-10% in average price value (fewer price reductions, carrying costs or home sitting on the market.) This formula shows that using conservative figures, if your home is worth $500,000 and you invest 1% to prepare it for sale … (1 comments)
home staging: Oh, you bring the pillows…
- 04/24/12 12:14 PM
Quite often I meet someone who does not understand what a home stager does. I understand, home staging is a relatively new thing – heck, I’ve been doing it for friends for over 20 years and didn’t know what it was called until a few years ago.

Most buyers don’t have additional funds to make repairs and updates to a home they are purchasing so they will pass on a home that needs updating. A certified, professional stager will make the house feel like a home but will also address maintenance issues … (2 comments)
home staging: Slaying the Dragon: What's a Home Stager To Do?
- 08/14/11 11:39 AM
As a home stager, you see things that need to be done to help sell a home, but sometimes the owner is resistant to change. What do you do? Well, you can suggest, but in the end, it’s all about making your client happy. I ran into this problem this week. I was hired to stage a fantastic home that was built in the 1970’s. The home has so much going for it – large rooms, hardwood floors, updated appliances – all on a huge lot. All the tile work needs to be updated but they are not willing to make the investment. … (6 comments)
