Need to Sell Your Home For More: Home Staging Can Help

Homeowners wanting to sell their home are in for some good news as many real estate markets are showing signs of rebound.For one, homes in the Denver, Colorado market in the $100,000-$300,000 price range are selling rapidly and at a price higher than anticipated.Nevertheless, homeowners are still wary in spite of these positive reports, because of the high amount of home inventory on the market, particularly foreclosed homes.   

 

One way to maintain the competitive edge, increase the desirability of your home and set it up for a quick sale is to have your home professionally staged.Professional staging will remove the personal characteristics of your home that may turn off a prospective buyer, setting your home up to appeal to as many people as possible.  You want a prospective buyer to picture himself living in the home.

 

Although there is no guarantee, history has shown that staged homes spend less time on the market and sell for far more than non-staged homes.  And yet, many homeowners are reluctant to take advantage of this proven sales strategy, for several reasons. 

 

1.Professional Staging is too expensive.  The cost of staging your home will vary.  Since the goal to staging your home is to accentuate its best features and minimize its worst, a home that is already in great shape will cost less to professionally stage.  Most staging companies will give you a consultation and estimate as to what it will cost, and many can arrange payment options that will work for your situation.

 

2.It will be too involved.The truth is that staging your home can be as easy as getting rid of all your clutter or rearranging furniture.  It can also be as complex as updating every single room.  Luckily, the latter is hardly ever necessary; you can often achieve excellent results by highlighting a few key rooms or areas such as kitchens, bathrooms or the master bedroom.It is critical to get rid of all the clutter in order to feature all of the best qualities of your home. 

 

3.  It will take too much time.Actually, the average time spent is one to three days, with even the most complex staging projects getting done in less than a week. 

 

The housing market continues to be tough, and houses competing with bargain priced bank owned properties need as much help as they can get.Having your home professionally staged may be just what you need to give you that competitive edge and to sell your home fast and for a great price.
