The Difference in hiring a Home Stager or a "stager"

Platinum Home Staging, Inc. was called in on a very larger property for a Home Staging Consultation. This bachelor has what every bachelor has in his dining room - a POOL TABLE, of course! Well, his Broker suggested using a Home Stager to get his home up to par, since the exact same floor plan across the street was also for sale. (Thumbs up to him!)

After talking with this home owner several times, we're 99% ready to move forward and I suggest this beautiful, handmade dining room set which seats 8. Everything in the home is Casa de Mexico, handmade, rich woods, terracotta tiles, etc. The dining room is 15' wide by 17' long, so this was my suggestion for a small monthly rental fee. Keep in mind, this is the ONLY piece of furniture we have to bring in for him, so this would be his ONLY furniture expense.


So flies in the Broker to save the day! His Broker has "a warehouse of furniture that he uses for staging that we can use for FREE!" - "Great!" I replied, "We can use what he has" - we do this every day; incorporate other pieces into the plan, besides it's only 1 room of the entire 6,000+ square feet of house - right?

Here's the kicker - THIS is the set that the Broker IS CURRENTLY USING in a house right down the street, which he is offering for us to use for free! How generous of him! Thankfully the Home Owner agreed that this set was a bit "weak" to use as the formal dining set.

That is why people hire experienced, Professional Home Stagers to STAGE homes, not just put furniture in a house....

Home Staging is not just for "Selling" Homes

The term "selling" a home is actually quite broad and varied. Think about it - "Selling" a home is not just for selling homes. If you are a Property Manager, or have a second income rental or vacation property, you are also "selling" your home, or rather it's services, every day.




These homes are not "for sale", yet they are essentially "selling" themselves; their service of a location for a relaxing vacation or quiet weekend, a family reunion, a weekend by the beach, or a ski trip in the mountains. Keeping in mind that over 98% of all potential clients or customers will view and decide on your rental or vacation property purely by how it is presented via the internet. How the property is presented through it's photographs IS the first impression.





For a very minimal investment, a Professional Home Stager can help Re-design your property using what you already have or for small additional cost, bring in accessory items, artwork, even furniture. Platinum Home Staging, Inc. will even take new, high resolution digital photos of the property once it has been Staged for use via internet marketing and print ads. Additional services such as Virtual Tours and embedded HTML codes are also available.

Using the same approach of "selling" your Rental and Lease properties can pay for itself within days as many home owners in today's economy are looking to lease homes verses apartments.

This Realtor in La Canada, CA Gets IT!!!

With some recent Agents saying that what I do as my chosen profession categorized as being "out" for 2009, I wanted to post a link to a Realtor Blog in La Cananda, CA that gets it!

Phyllis Harb of Dickens Podley Realtors
Her Los Angeles Real Estate Blog hits the nail on the head and I invite everyone to take a read and realize that this is coming from an Realty Industry Professional, not a Home Stager, and please leave a comment on her blog.
No wonder this Glendale home took 241 days and three price reductions to sell!

Home Staging is a viable marketing, selling and listing tool that Realtors should, and need to, embrace. The NAR recently released that over 87% of Buyers are "shopping" the internet first. Realtors everywhere are commenting on how advertising a property in local newspapers is a thing of the past and a waste of money. That being said, how the property is portrayed via the internet IS the homes FIRST IMPRESSION!
