Dynasty Staging understands the importance of educating our clients on the necessity of staging their home to sell, whether vacant or occupied.
Choosing to stage your home is a financially sound decision. Professional stagers often claim that staging services cost the home owner nothing. That’s because the investment of staging is easily returned in the time saved in the selling cycle, the avoidance of costly price reductions and additional maintenance and mortgage payments.
In our Michigan market, using professional staging services will decrease the time it takes to sell your home and increase the selling price. Dynasty Staging recognizes that nearly every home for sale would benefit from professional consultation and staging. National organizations and experts across the country agree:
- According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the average staging and home sale preparation investment is between 1 and 3 percent of the home’s asking price, which generates a return of 8 to 10 percent.
- In a 2009 Home Gain Survey of over 2000 Realtors, it was discovered that home staging typically provides a 343% return on investment.
- According to the Census Bureau the vacancy rate of homes is at the highest level the Bureau has seen since they started tracking it 40 years ago. Your house needs to be differentiated from all other empty homes on the market. Vacant homes sit on the market much longer and are drastically reduced in price more often than a house with furnishings. By professionally staging the house, the speed of the sales cycle and the selling price is increased.
- According to a NAR Profile of Buyers, over 84% searched for homes online first before deciding to visit. Your photos of beautifully staged rooms will stand out among the competition.
