Professional home staging is the art of preparing a home for resale by working with the flow of a home, eliminating clutter, editing and arranging furniture and enhancing curb appeal.  Basically, a stager converts your home into a spacious, open, warm, clean, fresh and inviting place to appeal to the largest group of buyers.

Todays buyers are buying space and floorplan, not a seller's personal decor.  Remember you aren't selling your personal items, you are selling your home.

The average home buyer determines in 8 seconds whether a home has potential for them.  In our competitive market, your home must provide an edge over the competition by making the home more neutral and open so the buyer can image themselves living there.

Staging is not RE-DECORATING. Staging is using your things and your space in the most creative way possible without spending a lot of money.

Staging is NOT covering up weaknesses. In fact the de-cluttering and removal of visual obstructions will help potential buyers more accurately assess the property.

Staging is about creating the most interest in the home by presenting it in its best possible light.

Why Stage? 

1. Typically, you will make more money. Homes that have been staged sell 17% higher than homes that are not staged (U. S. Housing and Urban Development) 
   
2. Typically, your House will sell faster.  
   
3. Most home owners cannot view their house objectively.
    
4. Typical home buyers cannot visualize the potential of a home.  Home builders are very successful in selling their homes because the model home shows the buyer it's potential.
    
5. The longer your home stays on the market, the lower your selling price.
    
6. Leaving your house "as is" sells the competition.  Currently, record high numbers of homes are listed, so you do not want to sell your neighbor's house.
    
7. Photos for virtual tour and advertisements look much better and draw more buyers.
    
8. Costs you NOTHING.  I will pay for 1-3 hours of a professional stagers time from Manorisms Home Stagers (staging homes in the Dallas area since 1989) to come and stage your home.
