Should You Stage Your Home? The Truth About Selling Faster & For More Money
Ever wondered why some homes sell in days while others linger on the market? The secret might be home staging.
What Is Home Staging?
Staging is the process of preparing your home to look its best for listing photos and showings. It can involve:
✔️ Decluttering and deep cleaning
✔️ Rearranging or adding furniture to enhance space
✔️ Neutralizing décor for broader appeal
✔️ Maximizing natural light and curb appeal
Does Staging Really Work?
According to studies, staged homes sell faster and for more money:
- 88% of buyers say home staging helped them visualize the property as their future home.
- Staged homes sell for 1-5% more on average.
Key Takeaway:
You don’t have to spend thousands to stage your home. Even small improvements, like decluttering and fresh paint, can make a huge impact. Talk to your agent about what works best for your home.
