“The staging really made a difference! All of our friends could not believe how different our house looked after staging. We got exactly what we were hoping for on the price, so we are very happy. We never would have gotten the price we did without your help. Thank you for all your help and support!” ~ Paco & Erika

Sold Less Than 2 Weeks After We Staged It (Sold Feb 25, 2023)
Despite High Asking Price in a Slower Market
See Before and After Below

Th home shown above was priced high, but it sold FAST despite the slower market. The seller got their price – they knew staging with us would help make that happen.  They initially went on market without staging, but just a few days into the listing they made a last minute decision that they should stage it, and called us in. Their instincts were good because this property sold fast at a high price while while so many comparable properties are struggling to sell right now, even at lower prices.  The before and after photos make it obvious why buyers are more attracted to homes we stage, versus the same home without staging.


Our clients pull more equity from the sale of their home when they stage with us.  The average return on staging is 5 times the staging fee according to real estate industry statistics.  Despite the frigid weather and slow market, this home sold very well because we staged the entire home to feel more modern, on-trend, inviting and high-end – and that gets buyers emotionally connected.

This home was listed by one of the city’s top realtors who advises every one of his clients why they should stage their home with us to get the most successful sale possible. This realtor doesn’t just tell this to his clients – when selling his own homes, he brings us in to stage, as do many other realtors when selling their personal homes.  Why? Because they know from experience that they’ll walk away with more money if they bring us in to stage.


 

Occupied Staging – Staging isn’t just for vacant homes. We can work with what you have, and bring in art work, accessories & accent furniture to make the home feel more modern and high end to attract better offers.

 


Home Staging Isn’t JUST for Vacant Homes – We Stage & Style Occupied Homes Too!
How It Works: We work with what you already have as much as possible & delete what doesn’t work from a staging perspective. Then we bring in supplementary furniture as needed, & always a lot of high end art, & decorative accessorizes to transform your space & drive higher offers.

Look Below – Which home would you prefer to buy?
The one in the “Before” shot, or the one in the “After” shot…?

This helps illustrate why buyers offer more for staged homes… even though this is an otherwise fine home, the staged version more closely matches the image of “perfection”.  The way we live is usually not the same as the way we style to sell to get maximum equity from the sale of a home. Plain and simple.

Above: SOLD for $50K above ask (asking price was $299,900) –  in its original, untouched 1940’s condition! Even though this home was desperately in need of updates and renos, the staging SOLD IT!  The agent (one of our loyal regulars) initially told the clients to expect the home to sell below list, unless they brought us in to stage it.  They followed their agent’s expertise and were amazed and thrilled by the rapid transformation we created for minimal cost through staging.  The selling price was beyond anything they could have anticipated – $50,000 over ask for a home that was initially predicted to sell below list price if not staged. The clients were elated at the return they got on their staging investment. The sellers made their staging investment back more than 20 times.  We LOVE being able to do this for our clients!  How it worked? We helped buyers to look beyond the dated appearance of the home instead of being distracted by it – we showed them that even with its out of date features, this was a beautiful home. The staging helped to create a lot of buyer interest in the home, which discouraged low-ball offers (common when a home is in need of work), and in fact, led buyers to want the home enough to bid well above ask.

 

 

 

 

 

This home had been on the market 72 days, with no offers, even in this hot market. The agent tried numerous times to convince the seller to have us stage it – After enough time went by with no offers, they finally they agreed. The house sold on the first showing after staging (2 days later), at the price the seller wanted. Staging SELLS houses! And our staging methods always get sellers higher selling prices. Some of our realtors estimate that the homes we stage for their clients sell for on average 20% more than they would have without the staging! These before and after photos help you understand why buyers perceive homes as being worth paying more for when we’ve staged them.

 

Above:  We recommended a quick paint colour change and light fixture upgrade to modernize and brighten the space, and add a punch of wow factor. We did some rearranging of items in the home and added some high end art to take this home to the next level. In a few short hours, the home was totally transformed and modernized into a space that had much higher appeal to the target buyer. For a relatively low cost, we helped get more buyers through the door and higher offers. Its not difficult to see why, look at the before and after pics – buyers will pay more for a place that looks modern and well styled than a home that looks “okay”. 

 

Sold for $50,000 above the $299,900 asking price; Multiple offers – Realtor’s own home (regular client)

Winnipeg Home Staging Before and AfterAbove:  The Realtor for this property (one of our regulars) urged the seller to have us stage it since they were really trying to “push the price” beyond what the comps supported.  Our staging package for this home included recommending a change in paint colour /colour consultation, as well as recommendations for replacing light fixtures in the main living area due to odd placement and mis-matching.  Then we staged the heck out of this house with high end furniture and artwork! The result? SOLD on offers day at a price that pushed the upper limits for this home. (Did we mention this home was listed during frigid cold weather and blizzard conditions in early January…? With listing photos that looked this good, buyers braved the weather to book their showings & submitted their bids!

 

 

 

 

Occupied Staging: Sold in 2 days, at asking price ($500,000) – no offers date. Client was so pleased he hired us to help with the interior decor and styling on his newly constructed luxury home.
