In southwest Michigan, specifically Battle Creek and Kalamazoo, you may have heard that the real estate market is slow. How then have so many home owners and real estate agents found quite the opposite? In addition to hard work and customer service real estate agents have found that properly preparing your home for market through the process of home staging has resulted in quicker sales for the home owner.
Home staging helps you properly prepare your property for today's market. StageRight Home Staging (www.stagerightstaging.com) offers consultations as well as actual home staging as part of their service level to do just that.
Home staging will help you depersonalize your space so that the potential home owner can envision themselves in your home. For example, personal photographs and collectibles are important to you, but not the potential home purchaser. They are looking for square footage, amenities, character and possibilities. Proper home staging will assist you with what to display and what to pack away. You are moving anyway so why not get started packing a little early.
Home staging will clearly define the use of each room. Home staging will through the use of art, accessories and furniture placement guide the eye of the potential buyer. Home staging gives the potential buyer a cause to pause and take in all the qualities your home has to offer. The square footage, character, amenities and possibilities will be showcased.
Enlisting the assitance of a home stager can lighten the burden of preparing your property for sale. By properly staging your home you will be ahead of the comparable and unstaged competition.

TESTIMONIAL
FYI - the new buyers were here this morning and I asked them how much the staging/changes influenced their buying. They said they didn't buy it before and wouldn't have this time but heard there were some changes and loved what we did. Before they felt there were too many changes they would have had to do and now feel like they don't have to change anything and what we did is just what they would have done. So there you have it.....ON THE MARKET 2.5 YEARS, STAGED AND SOLD IN UNDER 30 DAYS.
Thanks Carole. I will spread the word. Lakeview
