What is Staging?
Stage It . . .
Quiet simply, staging is the process of bringing out the beauty in your home to prepare it for sale. Making minor changes to a house, inside and out, can make a world of difference and facilitate the selling process. Sometimes all it takes is a fresh coat of paint, rearranged furniture,
de-cluttering, and attractive lanscaping around your front entrance to highlight your house's natural beauty. Many times, it's the little things that make the big diffrence.

Key Points to Remember
Top Benefits of Staging Your Home
~ Faster sale time
~ Better sale price
~ Distinct marketing advantage
~ Attract a broader range of buyers
~ Buyers feel the home is well maintained
~ Building inspectors view Staged homes as well cared for
~ Often get better appraisal value
~ Professional image looks better on fliers and websites
~ Staged homes spend 80% LESS time on the market!
~ The investment in Staging is better and always less than a price reduction.
~ The way you live in a home and the way a house is prepared for market are
two different things.
~ Just like the product on the shelf at the store, the purchaser of today buys the
best available product, at the best price, in the best wrapper to meet their needs.
~ Buyer's only know what they see, not the way it could be.
~ Clutter eats equity.
~ A seller only has control over two things: the List Price and how their home looks.
Testimonials
There is no way anyone could convince me that the money I spent on your fee (and the painting and cleaning) isn`t coming back to me double in the price I got in this terrible market .... and so quickly - 8 days after listing! Wow!

Before & After Photos
There were two homes on this street for sale at the same time. One home -- Not Staged -- went on the market February 1, 2007 and is still on the market after 5 1/2 months and several price reductions. This neighboring home was Staged first, went on the market June 1, 2007, and went under contract after 42 days.
Debra Wallace, ASP Portland, Maine
This home was on the market for 90 days with no offers. At the insistence of the homeowner, I was contracted to stage the property. It sold two days after staging! Chris Balch, ASP, IAHSP St. Louis, MO
