MOVING IS
Stressful
And we have more good news for you: Securing the highest return on the sale of your house is a lot of work — exhausting, emotional, and often backbreaking work. And even when the house is priced right and in a great location, you have competition for buyers.
You can become blind to the wear and tear and the flaws of your house that jump out to a prospective buyer. So GET YOUR AGENT IN NOW to provide an objective view
Is It Worth It? Won't People See Past The Mess?
Obviously you will make more money if the home looks more valuable. But there are definitely other benefits
Property Will Sell Faster
Well presented properties attract more potential buyers. When a house looks great and shows really well, agents can initiate aggressive marketing strategies, maximizing the number of potential buyers who look at your property. More often than not, the house sells faster and for more money than it would if it hadn’t been staged.
Less Stress
Sellers experience less stress after the house sells. Rather than waiting for an offer and then packing up and moving all at once, homeowners who stage their properties do a lot of their packing before the house even hits the market.
You're Almost Done
All the sorting, organizing, and purging you’ve promised yourself you do for years actually gets done. Meeting that milestone definitely qualifies as a feelgood moment and enables you to move to your new house with a clean slate.
Less Intrusions
A faster sale equals less stress. When your house sells fast, you have fewer open houses to prepare for, fewer intrusions, and a shorter amount of time you actually have to keep the house show ready.
And The Stats Don't Lie
In an AOL Money and Finance poll of over 15,000 people, 87 percent said that home presentation makes the difference in most sales.
From a survey conducted by the real estate marketing firm HomeGain, 2,000 real estate agents deduced that home sale preparation provides a 340% return on investment.
