Home staging is the act of preparing a property for sale in the real estate marketplace. The goal of staging is to make a home appealing to the highest number of potential buyers.

Staging techniques focus on improving a property's appeal by transforming it into a welcoming, attractive product that more buyers might want.

What is “Home Staging”?

It is NOT to deceive the Buyer by covering flaws or defects in the home.

What Home Staging is NOT

It is NOT simply placing furniture or accessories in an empty room.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT

HOME STAGER

1. Do they have a valid business license?

2. Are they insured? Home Stagers are in essence independent contractors

3. Find a Home Stager with the most experience in actually Staging homes

4. Does the Stager have a portfolio or website with before and after photography?

5. More importantly, make sure that their portfolio contains photos that are of their own work. Not of stock photography or supplied by their training course.

6. Does their website have current information on recently staged properties or successes in today’s market and economy?

7. Do they offer a range of Staging options and Styles, or is it “one-style-fits-all”

8. Ask for references, and then check those references and ask for more than just one professional reference: Home Owner, Realtor, Developer, etc.

Not All Stagers Are Created Equal
