Patch Blog: Why Stage Your Home?

Homes that are staged sell 80% faster, and for 7% more than non-staged homes.

Because homes that are staged sell 80 percent faster, and for 7 percent more than non-staged homes*.

Most buyers do not have the imagination to see beyond what the home looks like when they first see it, so they cannot visualize the home de-cluttered, painted in different colors, with different furnishings, etc. Major builders have conducted studies and confirmed that staged homes sell faster and for more money. That is why they spend the time and money to create a model home with the most desirable paint colors, inviting landscaping, and furniture staged to allow you to visualize living there.
