How DOES a Home Stager establish PRICE?
Q: What will it take to make this transition from this? Seriously.
A: Vision. Time. Effort. Inventory.
First some questions for YOU-AND for the STAGER...
Q: Is your house Vacant?
A: What kind and how much furniture will we need for this property? What will our moving expenses look like?
Q: Is your house Occupied? Are there kids, pets, smokers? Neatniks or slobs?
A: What are the issues will to overcome to interest buyers in this property?
Q: How old is the place? Good repair? How many different colors does it sport? Wild ones? Wallpaper? Fashionable furniture in today's taste or twenty years ago?
A: How far outside the box will we have to reach to make this one irresistible? And, are the sellers going to follow our advice on prestaging work like painting and changing out furniture etc?
Q: Are we talking about a condo, bungalow, McMansion, full out palace? How's the neighborhood?
A: What level and how much inventory of furnishings and accessories will we need to invest in this home to make it shine?
Q: Who is the target market?
A: Who do we need to keep in mind for this one - hip young professionals, families?
Q: What is the price point of the house?
A: All our inventory is appropriate to homes of one level or another, but what specifically will this one require to get it sold?
All logical questions for a price quote, right? But that's not the half of it... Each property is also unique...it's YOURS.
