When selling your property, it is crucial to appeal to potential buyers. This often involves a comprehensive staging process, which may seem daunting to some.
The Dave Masson Real Estate Group’s services aim to alleviate these concerns. We will provide professional staging to make your home truly stand out.
Why Rely on a Professional Home Stager?
“But Dave, surely I can stage my own house — just declutter and pack a few things away?”
Contrary to common myths, home staging involves more than just decluttering. Our signature service incorporates professional home staging in collaboration with top local companies.
One of the top local companies is Upstaged Vancouver. Our professional stagers “have staged millions of dollars in Real Estate. They also have access to a full warehouse bursting with various furniture, artwork, rugs, lighting, plants, and accessories.”
These resources transform houses into homes that look luxurious and lived in. Our approach is so practical that there’s a good chance you won’t want to move after we’ve completed our staging process!
Debunking Staging Myths
Myth #1: A Buyer Can Better Imagine a Home without Furniture
Fact: Furniture provides scale and vision. Like in a show home, a fully furnished and decorated house allows prospective buyers to visualize their lives within its walls.
After its selling price, the condition of your home is the single most significant factor determining how fast and for how much it sells.
Many potential buyers struggle to visualize the true potential of a home. This is because they need to see it. Staging allows them to see past imperfections and instead focus on the home’s best features.
Myth #2: You Don’t Need Staging During a Hot Seller’s Market
Fact: Professional staging has proven to generate higher selling prices and quicker sales. They develop this regardless of the market.
It also increases the perceived value of the property. It further increases the likelihood of a smoother transaction and firm completion.
Myth #3: Staging Is Mostly Decluttering and a Little Rearranging, and I Can Do Most of It Myself
Fact: Staging goes beyond simple decluttering. Professional stagers apply design principles that maximize perceived value.
This is because these professionals are equipped with training and experience.
Myth #4: Decorated Homes Don’t Need Staging
Fact: Even decorated homes benefit from staging. Staging shifts the focus from the owner’s personal style and emotional collections to the home’s best features.
This allows prospective buyers to envision themselves living there.
Myth #5: Buyers Can Look Past Imperfections
Fact: Today’s buyers have high expectations. This is because of their increasing sophistication and exposure to real estate shows and platforms.
Especially in higher price ranges, buyers expect a turnkey experience, and a home needs to shine to attract their attention.
