What is Redesign?

Redesign is working with the furniture, art and accessories that you already have and possibly some new items to make your home the best it can be, a home is where you will feel comfortable and at peace.

Redesigning is not as severe as home staging. With staging you are marketing a product, the house. With redesign you are turning a house into a home. Redesign when you want to live in the house.

Redesign is taking a tired room and giving it the gift of life.

Why Stage your home?

Home Staging helps you gain a competitive advantage over other homes on the market. By staging your house properly, it appeals to a greater range of buyers. After you determine your target market then your house is staged accordingly. For example, a condo in a neighborhood of young professionals would be staged differently than one in a retirement or over-55 community.

If you went diamond hunting and lo and behold you found a diamond, you might not recognize its value until it was cut and shined. This goes for your property too.

Buyers won’t buy what they can’t see.

If you don’t stage you help the competion to sell their home.

Why hire a home stager?

Obviously, you can do a lot of what comes under the heading of “staging” yourself. It’s just common sense. But can you see with an “objective eye“? Most home owners can’t. You need to be able to see with fresh eyes – buyers eyes.  Home Stagers dress your home for success. Home Staging is merchandising your home as a product for sale among many other products for sale. Staging lifts your property (product) above the competition. A good home stager can save you money. How? Statistically, staged homes sell for more, and faster. Many sellers in desperation lower their price again and again and again.

Why do Realtors need a Home Stager?

Today’s real estate market is changing and the way realtors do business is changing.  Buyers are increasingly going to the internet to look for homes.  You know what they say, “A picture is worth a thousand words.”  In areas where competition is stiff, staging your home is mandatory.

It is important for your listing to present well and photograph well. Do you want your listing to look like the Goodwill or Walmart or would you rather have it show like Neiman Marcus or Bloomingdales?

Without home staging your listing will most likely sell for less, take longer to sell or never sell.

Realtors work too hard to see a listing expire with no sale.  Sellers are frustrated and rarely recommend an agent who couldn’t sell their house.  You feel bad, the seller feels worse. Remember you only have one chance to make a great first impression.
