Staging is preparing
a house for sale in such a way that when buyers visit,
they experience the feeling of HOME. Staging helps
buyers connect with a house emotionally, making them better
able to imagine themselves living there - which stimulates
the desire to purchase.
Real estate staging works in any market
and in any neighborhood!
Staged homes typically sell faster and for
more money. You
can't change interest rates or other market conditions
...but you have a lot more control over the sale of your
home than you may realize! Staging
is taking control over how buyers think and feel about
your house. Buyers start off being very logical about
their home search, but ultimately they end up buying a
house for one of only two very emotional reasons: (1)
they fall in love with the house, or (2) they love a bargain.
A staged house will make buyers fall so
in love that they'll be willing to pay top dollar.
A house
that has not been properly prepared for sale will fall
into the category of a bargain. Most houses have
a hidden $10,000 - $20,000 that's quite easy to find if
you know where to look ...so your relatively small investment
can reap considerable rewards!
Staging should not require major expenses or renovations...
it just takes marketing your home to an amazing new level. The
Home Team Advantage, LLC staging professional can help
you inexpensively enhance the
architectural features of your house, making it appear
more spacious while neutralizing strong decorating statements. We
know the basics of furniture and accessory placement but
our goal will not be to "redecorate"
your home. Rather,
we help you see your home through "buyers' eyes," then
coach and work with you to make your house more marketable
and enticing to buyers. [See our How
We Work page
for details.]
...and the benefits of staging go
well beyond enjoying a profitable and quick sale!
Real estate staging helps you in the transition
to the next chapter of your life. You'll be organized,
less emotional about your home, packed and ready to move
on to your new place! Even beyond selling
your home, staging can benefit almost every homeowner:
Staging can just as easily, effectively and
economically happen after the sale too. A variety
of staging solutions can also be used, even if you have
no plans for moving at all. Click on Our
