Stupid Staging
There are times when the Real Estate culture can really hurt you
The rabid adherence to having your property staged can be detrimental to you, and – as a consequence – to your agent as well. I am sure there are instances in past markets when homes sold faster and for more money, but is it really working well in your case, in this market?
The delays in staging can bring additional damage due to carrying costs and the time value of money
My whole career is based on understanding the Sellers’ needs. I ask a lot of questions, and if the trade-offs of staging for a faster and higher priced sale were not greatly benefiting the Sellers’ desired goal, then we sold it at an “as is” price. Selling property that allows room for “sweat equity” can be a siren’s call to a Buyer.
Many times, the cost of staging, the delay in marketing the property, and the eventual sale exceed the return on staging There is a possible solution for you – e-mail me direct and ask for our Get It Ready Checklist
I have eliminated most of the problems that staging can create by approaching the subject in a non-intrusive way
