Home staging is all about showcasing a home’s strong points, minimizing its problem areas, and increasing its appeal to a broad range of prospective buyers for that specific neighborhood.
Staging is the only thing that a homeowner and agent can do to increase a homes value. Staging is an investment. Studies have revealed that the average staging investment is 1-3% of the homes asking price and typically generates a return of 8-10%.
