HOME STAGING
What is home staging?
To put it simply, home staging means “setting the stage” or preparing a home for the potential buyer. It’s about presenting the home to potential buyers as appealing as possible and can involve a number of things like redecorating, rearranging the furniture, cleaning and removing items, plus several other strategies to aesthetically enhance your home.
According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR)* 82% of buyers’ agents say it’s easier for their clients to envision their future in a home that is staged verses one that is not. *Source
Staging can make your home look ‘move-in-ready’ and makes it easier to market. When trying to sell your home, helping each and every potential buyer see themselves enjoying your home now and into the future should be your #1 priority. You want to get top dollar for it and the best way to do that is with a professionally staged home.

BENEFITS OF HOME STAGING
YOU HAVE OPTIONS
Home staging provides that move-in ready vibe, meaning buyers are more attracted to a home that relieves them of any and all work or repair.
Staging also makes a home more market ready. It makes listing photos on and offline, displayed in brochures, on social media and other marketing channels more visually appealing. Sight lines, organization and clean visuals play a huge role in the selling and buying process these days and with the option to buy sight unseen, having a professionally staged home that can be photographed well is key to whether your home stays on the market for a few days or a few weeks.
Whether you feel up to a DIY project to save money or if want you to hire a professional stager, here at Vicki Lee Green Real Estate, we’ve got you covered.
DIY
Being comfortable with your organization and design abilities is key in staging a house by yourself. Some items you might want to consider when staging your home could be: un-clutter decor, rearrange furniture, paint, add new throw pillows and carpets. Be sure to remove personal items and decor and to add touches of warmth throughout with fresh flowers and plants.
