Why is Staging a Vacant House So Important?

Vacant homes feel cold, lifeless and uninviting. Buyers cannot picture themselves living there, which is why vacant homes take almost twice as long to sell. A vacant home sends a message to buyers that the seller is desperate to sell, which results in much lower offers. Staging a vacant house with just the right amount of furniture makes the house feel like a home, the rooms will look larger, and it will leave buyers with positive thoughts and ideas of living there. Because we own our own furniture and accessory inventory, we offer substantial savings over furniture rental companies. We can provide a custom proposal for staging your vacant home so we can save you the most amount of money.

Only 10% of buyers can visualize, so when they walk into a vacant home, 90% won't actually be able to visualize the home's potential. When homes are vacant, every flaw is exposed. Normal wear and tear, a chipped tile or small crack will be magnified. This will cause buyers to focus on the negatives, rather than the positives. A professional stager knows how to redirect a buyer’s focus, emphasizing the positive features of the home while visually diminishing the negatives.
