Home Staging 101: Preparing Your Home for a Speedy Sale

Statistics show that staged homes sell 50% faster than non-staged homes (and for more money), but what exactly is home staging?  Why should you stage your home before you list to sell?  Why should you ask your realtor about staging?  What happens when you stage?  This class will help you understand the basics of home staging, why it’s important, how you as the homeowner are involved and basic principles you can apply to your own home if you are looking to sell. 


Topics will include the top reasons to stage, the role colors play in staging, cost/benefits of staging and the 3 keys to selling your home.  We’ll explore current listings together and help train your eye to see the impact of a well-staged home.  Whether your home is on the market now or you are thinking of listing in the future, come and learn from a professional home stager!
