Vacant Staging
Empty Houses Take Longer to Sell
Real estate statistics show that an empty property tends to sit on the market longer.
Ninety percent (90%) of buyers cannot visualize beyond what they see in front of them. If the space is empty, there is no frame of reference. The space looks like it has been abandoned. Most people cannot visualize their furniture in the space since without furniture, it is more difficult to gauge how large or small the rooms are. There is a reason why new builds are more appealing to buyers. In addition to architects and designers, builders of today hire professional stagers and designers to showcase their properties in the most appealing way to the largest market they can.
A vacant property does not entice a potential buyer to linger, sit, and daydream about how the property would be perfect for their new home.
This is what resale property is competing with in the market today. In addition, today's younger and more savvy home buyers want what they see on television and all over social media. Is risking your equity worth ignoring what is a necessary investment in today's real estate market? Speaking with a professional stager is a crucial first step in preparing your property for market. Before you list with a real estate agent, find out what steps are necessary to ready your property for sale.
Don't risk the hard-earned equity your property has accumulated.
