BENEFITS OF STAGING & PRICING INFORMATION

HIGHER PRICE, QUICKER SALE

Birdhouse Design explains the benefits of staging and how a small investment can return through a higher offer and a fast selling time.

There are times when property owners and developers struggle to understand why their reasonably priced, well-located property is not getting the offers or the value they expected. It is easy to forget that buyers are looking for their dream home. Buyers can’t always see the potential of a property through the blur of the current owner’s taste or the blank canvas of an empty apartment. A small investment in staging and styling your property can be the difference between months on the market and a quick sale.

Although home staging is not a new concept to the property market, over the past few years it has continued to grow in popularity as more and more homeowners recognise the benefits. For a property to sell for the best possible price within the shortest time frame, it needs to appeal to the largest number of potential buyers. Much like a retail shop window uses mannequins to display items in a manner that allows people to picture themselves wearing the clothes or using the products, staging showcases a home’s best features, creates appeal and entices potential buyers to see themselves living in that home- it creates aspirations.

Staging alone leads to listed properties selling 73% faster, with sales typically reaching higher prices, according to Real Estate Staging Association. As an example, we saw one property on the market for months, with a lot of viewings and low offers. The developers eventually decided to take the steps of investing in staging the property and with that it gained a few more offers with one being successfully over the asking price.

This shows a little style can go a long way, with the homeowner reaping the rewards of their investment. Casting an expert eye over the property, professional stylists look at the layout, atmosphere and style and dress each property to suit the target market. Properties are transformed through small touches, allowing each home to be represented in the best light, with the sole purpose of ensuring owners more than they put in.

PRICING INFORMATION

Each property is valued dependant on property type, staging requirements and time. I will provide a full quote after our initial meeting.

I am extremely proud of Birdhouse Design’s 100% success rate. All of my clients have secured a buyer post staging their property. In many instances, properties have been stagnated on the market for months prior to the Birdhouse introduction.
