Why Stage?

Benefits of Home Staging

The purpose of staging is to help buyers fall in love with your home, first, when they look at the gorgeous professional photos online, and when they visit your home in person. Staging helps to minimize any imperfections and maximizes the perceived value. Staging is not decorating, it is marketing.

Eighty-two percent of buyers' agents said staging helped their clients visualize the property as their home, according to the National Association of REALTORS® 2021 Profile of Home Staging.
