The Internet and social media have drastically changed how we buy and sell homes. Today’s buyers are proactive and savvy, doing their research online where they can easily view hundreds of homes.
Your MLS photos are the “bait” which attracts 95% of buyers to your house. This
is why so many Realtors® recommend staging to their clients, to better market their homes.
And, this is not a new concept; model homes have been around forever, successfully selling out entire communities of townhouses, condos and spec homes.
Moreover, most Realtors prefer to show staged homes because they are market ready.
As a NJ home stager I can tell you it’s the norm to stage vacant, luxury properties in my area. Why? Because we stage their competition and they see the results.
NJ’s Elite Staging creates an elevated lifestyle that buyers aspire to, creating a luxrury design tailored to your buyer demographic.
The following homes sat on the market with no respectable offers for over 5 months. Once staged they all sold within 7 weeks.
Before: vacant rooms appear smaller...

Once staged, buyers can truly see this living room's potential...
Before: Beautiful room, but...

Once staged, the bait was set and this home sold in 3 weeks...
Before: Buyers couldn't figure out furniture arrangement...

After: problem solved!
Before: Buyers didn't know what to do with this long wall...

After: Shelving, large art and a tv solved the mystery...
Vacant, buyers felt this family room was too small...

After: now buyers can clearly see there is more than enough seating...
