Is Home Staging Worth the Money?

Home staging may well make the difference between SOLD or STAYING.

Original content by Laurie Calhoun

Are you a frugal home seller, wondering whether home staging a good investment? We know a couple that thinks it is! They invested less than 1/2% of their home’s listing price to have Gloria Home Staging prepare their home for sale, and 8 days later, they had an offer.

An investment is defined as “something given or lent for a return.” The old saying that you have to spend money to make money usually holds true. Spending a few hundred dollars (or even a couple of thousand, in many cases) in order to sell your home for full price is a wise choice. Any price reduction you will have to take if your home does not sell quickly will certainly be far more than even 1% of the listing price.

It surprises me that there are still so many people out there not convinced, Kathleen.  I guess it can depend on the stager and the personal experience.. but in general, I am sold on staging.
