Irvine Real Estate-Stage your home to Sell!

The art of home staging can make all the difference when selling your home! Statistics have proven that a staged home will sell faster and will obtain a higher price than a similar home with no staging efforts! Staged homes sell 50% faster and for about 7% more than non staged properties.This does not have to be a costly process. Sometimes just a few changes can make a big difference. An empty home can be transformed with even minimal furniture and decorations. Sometimes a coat of paint or just removing, adding or rearranging furniture can make all the difference! Most home buyers are looking for a house with curb appeal so don't overlook the outside of your home. “If they drive up to a house with old faded paint and old windows, the buyers automatically drive on by. The old saying ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover’ falls on deaf ears with most buyers.” I offer a free in home consultation to help you decide before you invest work or money into your home!

Here are a few reasons to:

Don 't Sell an Empty House!

  • People don't buy houses-they buy homes: Buyers often are drawn to a warm feeling of home that furniture and accessories provide.
  • With no furniture there is no sense of size or purpose: Empty rooms are not inviting and hard to determine what size furniture will work within them. Also some rooms are difficult to know what the intended purpose for the room is. It can be a dining room or family room or den, etc? Only 10% of buyers can visualize the potential of a room.. If it is designated it at least gives the buyer the initial use and often will spur ideas of possibilities.
  • When rooms are empty buyers focus on negative: It is much easier to notice a not so perfect paint job or crack in the wall when the room is empty. There is simply nothing else to focus on!
  • Two mortgage payments are expensive! A vacant home typically takes twice as long to sell and usually sells for less! Don't take this chance is staging a home is within your reach.
