Top Ten Reasons to Stage Your Home 
Original article from Home Staging Resource


You Will Make More Money

U.S. Housing and Urban Development reports that a staged house sells, on average, 17% higher than a non-staged house.

Your House Will Sell Faster = Less Headaches and Hassle

The New York Village Voice reported that the average number of days on the market for a staged house was 13.9 versus 30.9 days for an unstaged house.

The Cost of Staging, Doesn't Cost A Dime...

In a 2003 HomeGain Survey of over 2000 Realtors it was discovered that sellers who spent up to $1000 Staging their home recovered almost 200% of the cost in the sale of their home.

Most Home Sellers Cannot View Their House Objectively

If you can't see objectively, you can't "package" effectively. Have a staging professional give you a detailed, step by step, "Action Plan" for less than $500 so you can do the work yourself.

Less Guesswork and "Do It Yourself"...

A professional home stager can manage your projects from start to finish OR give you a detailed enough report based on their extensive knowledge and training to have you "do it yourself".

Only 10% of homebuyers can visualize the potential of a home

That's why staging a vacant home is critical! You don't want the benefits of your beautiful home left up to the buyer's imagination.

Studies show that the longer your home stays on the market the lower your selling price will be...

Don't settle for less and lower your price...have your house staged.

The Money You Make is TAX FREE!

Take advantage of your tax-free capital gain by getting every dollar you can in the selling price of your home.

Leaving Your House in "AS IS" Condition Will Help Sell the Competition


Right now the number of homes for sale on the market is at a record high, competition is getting stiff and buyers have an expectation when they walk through your door.

You can relax!

You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have done absolutely everything possible to affect
 a quick sale of your most valuable commodity and for top dollar!

Vacant Homes: $350

Since only 10 % of buyers can visualize the potential of a home, we need to help the 90% of buyers visualize the potential and attributes of your home.This consultation provides you with a thorough evaluation of your home.  We will then coordinate rental furniture and accessories for each space. We will stage the rooms to bring out the full potential that exists within the bare walls.  Rental fees will vary depending on product and length of rental period.  Any shopping or advice beyond our consultation will be billed at $65 hour.

*For Example, a living room set of a sofa, chair and tables will typically range from $120-175 per month.

Occupied Homes: $250 and up, depending on size of home

NI will bring objective and fresh ideas for your home from the exterior curb appeal to the interior walls.  During this 1-2 hour consultation, we will walk from room to room with the client and compose a detailed checklist of DIY projects for the homeowner.  We want to bring out the BEST features of your home.  This may be painting the walls a neutral color, changing some light fixtures or de-cluttering your bookshelves.  Within 24-48 hours, you will receive our checklist of suggestions via email for your property.   Any shopping or advice beyond our consultation will be billed at $65 hour.
