10 Reasons Why To Home Stage

1. Receive more viewings: When buying or renting a property, first impressions are crucial. 95% of buyers search online for their next home. The first impressions is the property photographs on the estate agent's website. These beautiful pictures are what entice buyers to view the property.
   
   

2. Great return on investment: When a house is not selling, estate agents will often encourage you to reduce the asking price, sometimes by as much as 3%. On a £250,000 that is a £7,500 reduction! Home staging often means more viewings, more competition and better offers on your home.
   
   

3. A shorter time on the market: According to industry analysis, staged properties sell up to 3 times faster than non-staged properties. Hiring a home staging professional could mean you are sold and moved quicker, with less waiting around and less bills to pay for the property.
   
   

4. Save more money!: A home staging professional can save home owners money by helping them to avoid spending on unnecessary works and making costly mistakes when decorating their own home. With bespoke furniture packages this also saves the vendor from wasting money on furniture that needs selling again.
   
   

5. Avoid stress: According to many surveys, buying and selling a home is one of the most stressful events in someone's life. A house is usually the most expensive asset most people will ever own, this presents a huge element of caution and fear.
   
   

6. Stand out from the competition: Home staging can transform your property into an elegant and inviting home. Standing out from a similar building round the corner from you can be the difference between your house selling or the one down the street.
   
   

7. Selling the dream: Many home buyers can not see past the colour of the walls or the clutter on the surfaces. The aim is to make the property more neutral and appealing to a wider range of potential buyers by showing them how the property could look, and make them want to purchase this dream.
   
   

8. Empty properties are not appealing: Empty properties, even when they are brand new or freshly re-decorated, can appear cold and uninviting – most people cannot envisage how to use a certain space. Home staging helps potential buyers see what they can do with it and it will make them want to live in it.
   
   

9. Maximise the space: Home staging professionals will know how to bring the property’s best features to light. Sometimes just simple repositioning of the furniture can make the property appear brighter and more spacious.
   
   

10. Reduce the upheavel: When selling a property people do not want to invest money and time in a complete interior design project and full refurbishment. Home staging causes much less disruption.
