Staging is Key for Selling

By
Real Estate Agent with Metro Brokers/Priority Properties, Inc. ABR, CNE, CRS, GRI, e-PRO

Experienced real estate agents will tell you that the key formula to a speedy sale is the right listing price and a model appearance in the home. This “model look” can be achieved with home staging services.

Studies have shown that buyers are more intrigued to make an offer on turnkey properties, and these claims are backed by a recent report byHomeGain's Home Improvement Home Sale Maximizer™, which reveals that the average return on investment for home staging is 586%, and up to 82% of agents recommend using this marketing tool if you’re a seller in the Denver real estate market.

Cheri Long has garnered an extensive network of local professionals that includes exceptional home stagers thanks to her extensive experience in the real estate industry. Many home stagers will include furniture, décor, and other props in their service fee, which saves you the cost of having to purchase them on your own.

Other simple improvements that can be made to increase your home’s curb appeal is to pay attention to the landscape. A simple paint job does wonders for the home’s exterior, according to Cheri Long. In addition, Cheri recommends staging the home prior to an official listing and before getting home value estimates.

By making your home look fantastic, inside and out, you'll foster higher offers for your property and may even be able to find a buyer sooner than you would expect. If you’re ready to sell your home in the metro Denver area of Colorado, contact Cheri Long of Priority Properties, Inc.  at (303) 263-2072.

Staging is a very valuable tool in the seller's tool box.  A staged home sells faster and for more money.  It just makes sense to hire a stager.

Cheri thanks for the post with link. I'm always looking for 3rd party evidence to substantiate what we know is true.

Thanks Joy Bender , I have several blogs so that one was originally written for a consumer page. But I thought AR would enjoy it.

Joan Cox  it is a challenging market isn't it?  Latest stats say less than 3,800 detached single family homes available in the whole front range area. WOW!

Belinda Spillman and honestly, if the seller needs a stager I just pay for the initial consult because I know it will help bring in more buyers and higher prices.
