Questions
Is home staging expensive?
Our average staging package costs less than 1% of your home's value. Staging typically pays for itself through higher offers and faster sales compared to unstaged properties.
Why stage a home in a seller's market?
Staging helps achieve 1-5% higher offers by showcasing your home's full potential, even in competitive markets. Buyers pay more for move-in-ready properties that create emotional connections.
Do I need to stage the entire house?
Our minimum bronze package includes three main rooms plus kitchen and owner's bath. We recommend staging key areas that deliver maximum impact for most listings.
How quickly can you schedule staging?
We typically require 5-7 days notice, though peak seasons may need 14 days. We prioritize quick scheduling to help clients list properties promptly.
Can I purchase the staging furniture?
Yes! We often receive requests to sell staging pieces. We'll provide a comprehensive inventory list with pricing if buyers or sellers wish to keep the furnishings.
