Benefits of Home
Staging
Your image and professionalism
Why not ensure that your listings are the nicest looking ones in the
neighborhood. If the property looks great and sells faster and for more
money, it will be noticed by other agents and future clients who will want to
list with you.
Added value
Get ahead of your competition, offer staging as part of your services,
if you don't, other realtors will! The clients might make their listing
decision based on that extra service.
Faster turnover of your listings
You will spend less time, effort and money per listing and will increase
your earnings by turning the properties over more quickly.
Increased client satisfaction
Offering to stage a client's house will demonstrate to them that you are
going an extra mile for them. The property will look better and the client will
thank you for it.
Allows you to focus on your core
business
List and negotiate the sale of a property rather than help clients with
detailed suggestions on what needs to be done and how to do
it. Hours are spent discussing colors, decluttering, fixing,
furniture repositioning and accessorizing, are you prepared to spend that time?
A Stager can prepare the property for listing and you can do what you do best!
Show and Sell!
Avoid delicate situations
Sometimes, giving advice can put you in an awkward position, like pet
odors, clutter issues, paint colors, fixing, outdated decor, and so on. Instead,
you remain professional and neutral by suggesting a Staging consultant to discuss
these matters with the client.
Better than a price reduction
Clients are not happy suggesting a price reduction, try explaining the
benefits of staging their property instead. It is cheaper than reducing the
price!
Home staging presents sellers the ability to
have a fantastic price advantage in competitive markets!
"Sometimes you have to spend money to make money" can certainly be
applied to home staging, the amount you invest hiring a professional home stager
will certainly justify pricing your home at or above local housing market value.
A new RBC survey indicates three in
10 Canadians (29 per cent) plan to buy a home in the next two years and 10 per
cent of them plan to act in the next six months. At a time when more of these
aspiring purchasers preview homes online long before they sally forth with a
realtor, the appearance of a home and highlighting it's best features is
imperative.
