As the saying goes, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Having a well staged home ensures that your listing is giving the best first impression possible to potential buyers, right from the start.
With recent trends showing that the Colorado market is moving away from being a seller’s market and becoming more neutral, staging a home can give you and your seller an advantage over the competition.
Below are just some of the ways staging a home can positively impact the success of your listings and your business.
- Improved First Impressions – The visual appeal of a purposefully designed space can make a home feel warm and inviting, helping buyers envision themselves in the home.
- Highlighting Best Features – Staging can help accentuate the selling points of a property, while simultaneously making it easier to overlook any less appealing features. For spaces that are smaller or have an awkward layout, a well-staged environment emphasizes the functionality of the space and creates a flow that otherwise might be more difficult to visualize.
- Better Photography – Typically, the first way that potential buyers will interact with your listing is through digital photographs. Staged homes are usually more photogenic, making your listing stand out from the competition and increasing your chances of getting an in-person showing.
- Neutralized Space – Staging a home can help depersonalize a home, removing strong personal pieces, making it easier for potential buyers to imagine their furniture and style in the home.
- Higher Selling Price – A well-staged home often results in a higher perceived value because it shows buyers the potential the home has.
- Higher Rates of Client Satisfaction – Staging a home demonstrates to your clients that you are willing to go the extra mile for their success and is linked to higher selling rates, making it more likely that they will recommend you and give you a positive review.
