What is Home Staging?

Home staging is the art of transforming a home into a buyer’s dream! Staging uses what the home owner already has and utilizes it to create a space that is appealing to a wider range of home buyers by simple processes of decluttering, organizing, rearranging, depersonalizing and adding necessary accessories,  furniture and fixtures to create a more neutral and updated space. Home staging is crucial for a home or business to sell faster and for the most amount of money possible in today’s housing market.

Why Do I Need to Stage My Home?

A shocking 90% of home buyer’s can’t see past your style, décor and clutter. They are not able to use their imagination and see the potential that the home may have. Homebuyers don’t want to see past it, because they don’t really want to have to do anything to the home after they move into it!

Why Use a Professional Home Stager?

A professional home stager comes into the home with an objective and unbiased eye. They are not attached emotionally to the home or the objects in the home. This gives them more of a “buyer’s eye” to see them home as potential home buyers would, therefore allowing staging professionals to evaluate the home and its staging design.  Objectivity is essential for successful stage. Please read the “Top Ten Reasons You Should Professionally Stage Your Home”.

Professional home stager are thoroughly trained and educated on the home staging design and principles. They have an expertise that the home owner may lack to successfully stage their home.

Can I Afford a Professional Home Stager?

Absolutely! If you think about it, you can’t afford to NOT use a professional home stager. An unstaged home spends an average of 200 days on the market. A professionally staged home’s average time on the market is 33 days!!!!  Out of desperation, the first thing that a homeowner does in order to sell the home is they lower their price. Typically the first price reduction is 10% of the original list price. If you are selling a home for $100,000 and reduce the price by 10%, that is a $10,000 price reduction.  If you just take 2% of your original list price and invest that into professionally home staging, statistically you will sell your home 85% faster and there is no need for a price reduction! In turn, a faster sale is more money in your pocket. Staged 2 Perfection will spend your investment dollars so efficiently that you may be able to raise the list price of your home! Please see  “Home Gain Statistics“.

Can I Stage My Own Home?

Anyone can stage their own home! However, to be completely successful, the home owner should still consult a professional stager to come in to evaluate and outline a design plan for your home staging. Objectivity again, is the key and the homeowner can have a very hard time detaching themselves from their home, which is completely expected and understandable. Staging professionals are not emotionally attached to your home and work very hard to advise and guide you through a successful stage. Staged 2 Perfection offers products and services that are designed for the do-it-yourselfers. They give the homeowner a step-by-step process of procedures that need to be completed for a quick and profitable sale. We provide the expertise and guidance; you supply the energy and the implementation!

What is Interior Redesign?

Interior redesign is very similar yet different from Home Staging.  Redesign still uses what the home already has and creates a space that is unique and comfortable to the client’s tastes and preferences, unlike staging which appeals to potential home buyers.  Interior redesign is more affordable than interior decorating because redesigners utilize every accessory, piece of furniture and home décor that is already available. Redesigners are also trained to implement their design plans on a budget, taking every measure to dramatically and creatively transform a room exactly to the homeowner’s desired style and preferences while keeping the costs as low as possible to the client.

Why Should I Redesign My Home?

Redesign adds a sense of comfort and an at-home feel. Redesigning your home, or just a room, can remove that blah feeling you get when you enter into it. So many aspects of design contribute greatly to a person mood and feeling. Have you ever found yourself falling asleep on the couch and just can’t keep your eyes open. So you decide, it is time for bed. You haul yourself off to your bedroom, lay down and yet to find yourself struggling to fall asleep?  Look around your room. Is your room balanced? Is there a sense of consistency or style? What color is your room? Are their mismatched pieces or is it so unorganized that it just seems like chaos? Redesign can take basic design principles and create restful and tranquil space that triggers relaxation allowing you to fall asleep better. Basic color choices and balancing the room make a very effective transition to the desired mood you are looking to achieve.

Chances are that if you enter your home or just one room in your home that creates a sense of chaos, anxiety or anything opposite of your desired effect, redesign may be needed!

Redesign also will add value to the home. There are simple and inexpensive cosmetic changes that be implemented into a redesign that will increase the home’s value. Even if no cosmetic changes are made, there may be no limit to what a home buyer will be willing to spend for the feeling and emotional connection that they get from the home!
