When a homeowner decides to list their home for sale, in today's economy, it can make it difficult for some sellers to justify spending a penny to get their home ready for the real estate market. However, the home-sale market is very competitive in areas that are still bloated with an inventory of unsold homes. When buyers have a choice, they pick the best. They want a home at a good price, in a good location, and one that they can move right into without having to do any work. Sellers want to ensure that their home shows at its full potential so that it out shines other comparable listings on the real estate market.
Staging is a marketing tool. A property that shows well will sell faster and for a higher price. That is a fact! Staging is no longer "nice to have"; it is necessary to maximize equity and makes good business sense for everyone - Realtors, sellers and potential buyers. It also is a "white glove" service that puts you, as the agent, ahead of other agents in the services you offer your clients.
If your client is a seller who's selling in a market where there is competition from distressed-sale foreclosures or from other sellers who are offering their homes in top condition, your client will be at a disadvantage if he don't fix up their home before selling. It will take longer for you to sell and you could sell for a lot less than if your client had invested time and money in properly preparing his home for sale.
You can provide the consultation for your client as part of your marketing strategy and budget, or your client can pay for the consultation.

From the consultation your client will select to use either our step by step plan and implement them selves, or continue, at their expense, to use our service to de-clutter and stage their home.
