Pros & Cons of Staging

Pros

  • Staging provides buyers with a visual of what it would be like to live in a property.
  • When you make your property look neat, attractive, spacious and well maintained, you set it apart from the exact same type of home that is vacant.
  • The properties features will be highlighted and attract buyers more.
  • 80% of buyers will first start their search online. The first property photos will be the first impression on if it is worth visiting. A well staged property will be more photogenic.
Cons
  • The cost of staging will be time, effort and money.
  • Living in a staged home will mean you need to essentially need to keep the property look picture perfect. This maybe challenging over time.
  • Depending on your home, staging may not be necessary. A fairly small town home or condo is likely going to sell for the same price with or with out staging. Staging a larger property are often well worth the investment.
