This is a common question we get quite a bit ... as I am sure Realtors, trying to explain the benefits of staging to their clients, do too! Here are a few answers to the above question.
Overall, staged homes sell faster and for more money. So, your home may sell without staging, but why risk leaving money on the table? Also, keep in mind that the cost of staging your home is less than what your first price reduction will be. Staging works!
Home Staging Stats:
- A staged home sells 2-3 times faster than a non-staged home.*
- A staged home sells for up to 6% more than a non-staged home.*
* Statistics taken from a survey of 2772 properties, done by Joy Valentine, Coldwell Banker Realty, Los Altos, California
``Recent statistics gathered by Stagedhomes.com shows that 94 percent of homes staged by an Accredited Staging Professional sold in 29 days or less, compared to an average of 145 days for homes that were not staged. What’s more, homes staged by Accredited Staging Professionals stay on the market 83 percent less than a home that has not been staged.``by Barb Schwarz
