Within 30 seconds of entering a home the potential buyer knows whether or not they are interested in the home.   So the first impression is very important. 

You stage the home to evoke an emotion in the buyer.  When staged the buyer connects with the home so they can imagine themselves living there.  You take the guess work out of where things should go, what particular rooms are for.   You make everything more attractive.

Home staging really does work because you are helping buyers purchase a HOME not a house.   Every day you see more and more sellers and realtors hiring professional stagers so their properties outshine the other homes.  You wouldn’t see this if staging wasn’t working.

According to stagedhomes.com, 95% of  professionally staged homes sell faster than non staged and within 11 days or less.  Also, usually for 17% more than non staged homes.

When you have multiple buyers falling in love with a property, the offers start to come in quicker. It's all about increasing traffic through your home. And a staged home accomplishes that.
