Should you stage your home?
Staging a home for sale can mean anything from flowers on your walkway to completely furnishing and painting your home. The cost can be as low as a few hundred dollars to ten thousand or more for complete furnishing for several months.
Does it pay back to go all out when staging a home? It may if your home is vacant or if your furniture is out of date or too unique. Often all that is necessary is packing away the clutter, rearranging your furniture and perhaps adding a few pieces of staged furniture and possibly paint. Most of the time I recommend we have a stager come to your home to give us ideas on what can be done with the furniture you have and paint colors if re-painting is considered.
Staged homes can and do sell for more just do not get carried away on the cost.
