PODS Phoenix Offers ‘Moving Bridge’ to Homeowners

PODS Phoenix Offers 'Moving Bridge' to Homeowners during the Home Staging and Selling Process

As homeowners are competing to sell their homes quicker and for a higher price, sellers and agents continue to turn to home staging techniques that allow buyers to envision the true potential of a home and increase home values.

According to buyer’s agents surveyed by the 2017 National Association of Realtors Profile of Home Staging Survey nearly one-third of agents agree home staging increased the dollar value offered between one to five percent compared to similar upstaged homes in the market’s vicinity.

“Home staging is helping sellers highlight their home’s strengths, appeal to the largest pool of prospective buyers and move through the market quicker,” says Mike Smith, Vice President of Operations for PODS® Phoenix. “And PODS is here to streamline the moving and storage process for sellers and buyers.”

Sellers are also finding staged homes are selling faster, leaving homeowners in limbo between selling a home and moving into their new home. While managing a busy schedule, homeowners are finding they need to ‘bridge’ the gap between decluttering, sorting, storing and moving their home furnishings from point A to point B.

“A PODS container is the perfect solution for homeowners so they can take their time to move their home furnishings at their own convenience and at any given time.” says Smith. “It creates a ‘bridge’ for the storage gap that is needed for customers looking to store their belongings in-between staging and selling their home.”
