Professional Interior Designers and Decorators in Hamilton, OH

Home staging is the process of neutralizing, de-cluttering and de-personalizing a home so it becomes a product that will appeal to the most number of Buyers possible. It is a powerful marketing tool that elevates a property by highlighting the features of the home and presents the lifestyle that allows Prospective Buyers to see themselves living there.

Home staging definitely affects the sales price! Staging not only increases the sales price but also decreases time spent on the market. National statistics show that 88% of staged properties sold at or above list price and the average days on market for a staged property is 10 days vs. 84 days for a non-staged property. In addition, 83% of Real Estate Agents say that staging makes it easier for buyers to visualize the property as their future home. The investment in staging is almost always less than a price reduction!

We recommend planning for 2 weeks for staging before the house goes on the market. The Stager will need to preview the property, write a proposal that is agreed upon with the owner, make selections of inventory, and then schedule the delivery and staging. After staging, there will need to be time for the photographer to take pictures and edit them before the house is listed.
