There is no denying that homes staged have a much warmer and inviting feel. It helps to see numbers showing just how much of a difference it makes.

The key is to find a stager who is (relatively) inexpensive and yet has a real flare for the type of property they are staging. The cost is a big issue now, because some listings stay on the market for many months. At some point, it is no longer cost efficient. Best regards, Kathy Wall Hi Francis,

When I hold open houses, there is such a difference when potential buyers walk in and see a home that feels clean, cozy and even luxurious at times. Staging makes the home seem much more "livable" and attractive, and in many cases, is well worth the cost. Francis – thanks for the numbers regarding the importance of staging.
