This is a statement we have heard multiple clients’ say after we’ve worked for hours staging a new listing! Certainly, home staging is a crucial aspect of the real estate process. When homeowners decide to sell their homes, staging can significantly impact the sale. We tour dozens of homes per week, the front runners and most memorable to our buyers are almost always staged! Here are some insights on how homeowners feel after staging their homes:
1. Increased Confidence: Staging transforms a property, making it more appealing to potential buyers. Homeowners often feel more confident about showcasing their space once it’s beautifully staged.
2. Faster Sale: According to a survey by HomeLight, approximately 83% of top real estate agents believe that a staged home sells faster than an unstaged one. When homeowners witness their staged property attracting more interest, it boosts their confidence in the selling process.
3. Higher Sale Price: Staging can positively affect the sale price. Around 67% of agents also believe that staging contributes to a higher sale price. When homeowners see the impact on their property’s perceived value, they feel satisfied with their decision to stage.
4. Emotional Connection: Staging helps potential buyers envision themselves living in the space. Homeowners often feel a sense of fulfillment when buyers connect emotionally with their home during showings. Many buyers cannot picture a space, so it helps them envision how the space will be once they move in! It also gives them design ideas for when they purchase the home.
5. Increase Functionality: When staging we try to highlight the functionality of the space. By moving furniture and prioritizing everyday tasks and storage we can maximize utility. We design with long term needs in mind and transform unused corners into functional areas.
Remember, staging isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s a strategic marketing tactic that can make a significant difference in the selling process. If you’re considering selling your home, investing in professional staging could be well worth it! As a team, we offer a staging service to our clients.
