Phoenix-Area Real Estate - the Value of Staging
An interesting trend in the home market began developing as the real estate market slumped in Central Arizona: staged home decor.
The fact is that your existing home decor may not be appealing to potential purchasers of your home. And most people lack sufficient imagination to envision what your home might look like with a different decor. This lack of imagination could cost you a sale.
So don't make people use their imagination! Decorate your home with some new furnishings, artwork, rugs, or various wall decor. Relative to what you might earn by getting the full sales price for your home, it will be a bargain. The practice is called "staging". Staging typically costs from $500 - $1,500 to modest size homes - a lot less than it would probably cost you if you had to lower the price of your home!
When staging your home, don't go overboard. Stick with neutral colors and items that are the correct size for your home. All you're trying to do is show buyers the potential in your home.
If you don't feel comfortable doing this yourself, there are lots of people who are now in the business of staging homes for sellers. It might be a very good investment to hire one of these people to come in and stage your home. Your bottom line with thank you.
